I've been using Tkinter and Tix to write a small program. I'm at a point where I need a tree view with checkboxes (checkbuttons) so I can select items from the tree view. Is there an easy way to do this? I've been looking at ttk.Treeview () and it looks easy to get the tree view but is there a way to insert a checkbutton to the view?
A simple code snippet would be really appreciated.
I'm not limited to ttk. Anything will do; as long as I have an example or good docs I can make it work
import Tix
class View(object):
def __init__(self, root):
self.root = root
self.makeCheckList()
def makeCheckList(self):
self.cl = Tix.CheckList(self.root, browsecmd=self.selectItem)
self.cl.pack()
self.cl.hlist.add("CL1", text="checklist1")
self.cl.hlist.add("CL1.Item1", text="subitem1")
self.cl.hlist.add("CL2", text="checklist2")
self.cl.hlist.add("CL2.Item1", text="subitem1")
self.cl.setstatus("CL2", "on")
self.cl.setstatus("CL2.Item1", "on")
self.cl.setstatus("CL1", "off")
self.cl.setstatus("CL1.Item1", "off")
self.cl.autosetmode()
def selectItem(self, item):
print item, self.cl.getstatus(item)
def main():
root = Tix.Tk()
view = View(root)
root.update()
root.mainloop()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
I made a treeview class with checkboxes inheriting ttk.Treeview, but the checkboxes are not ttk.Checkbutton but images of checked, unchecked and tristate checkboxes.
import tkinter as tk
import tkinter.ttk as ttk
class CheckboxTreeview(ttk.Treeview):

Treeview widget with checkboxes left of each item.
The checkboxes are done via the image attribute of the item, so to keep
the checkbox, you cannot add an image to the item.

self.im_tristate = tk.PhotoImage(file='tristate.png')
self.tag_configure("unchecked", image=self.im_unchecked)
self.tag_configure("tristate", image=self.im_tristate)
self.tag_configure("checked", image=self.im_checked)
# check / uncheck boxes on click
self.bind("<Button-1>", self.box_click, True)

An improved version of CheckboxTreeview is available in the ttkwidgets module.
