I'm trying to make a GUI that display lots of checkbuttons, i create them from a list; make a dictionary form the list and assign each checkbutton a variable from the dictionary so i can check it's state later. Problem is that all the checkbuttons are displayed in an 'alternate' state, even if i set the variable to either 0 or 1, i've also tried changing states, but nothing seems to help.
y = 0
for x in get_dir_names(r'D:\SKL\test\win10'):
drv_check[x] = Variable()
drv_check[x].set(0)
center_window(150, 500, top_child)
drv = ttk.Checkbutton(child_frame, text=x, variable=drv_check[x])
drv.grid(row=y, column=0, sticky=W)
y += 1
for reference
def get_dir_names(dir_path):
"""Get names only of all directories from a given path (none recursive)"""
drv_list = [x for x in os.walk(dir_path).__next__()[1]]
drv_name = dict({})
for y in drv_list:
tmp_ver = dir_path + r'\\' + y
drv_name[y] = (os.walk(tmp_ver).__next__()[1]).pop()
return drv_name
Figured it out, I've made a "toggle all" button and it seemed to fix it, but it's weird that it didn't work before.
here's the function i used:
Also i run the function in a new thread.
