RE: text in a widget, text-widget
You can use tags with in the text widget. See the documentation in Tk::Text for more explanation on how they work. How to configure: $scrolled->tagConfigure('BLUE',-background => 'blue'); $scrolled->tagConfigure('RED',-foreground => 'red'); $scrolled->tagConfigure('GREEN',-foreground => 'green'); Here is how I use them: $scrolled->insert('end',$job_header,'RED') if ($job_header); $scrolled->insert('end',$running_proc,'BLUE') if ($running_proc); $scro...

RE: text in a widget, text-widget @ 1146167556 #3
Johan, Got to thinking about something that may work for you. Please see my modified code. Basically The only thing that I give it a is a list of words, the tag and tag bind is generated on the fly. Maybe using an approach like this will get you closer to what you wanted. Still kinda lame as you have to create a new tag for each word or in this case url but it at least will allow you to do it on the fly.

RE: text in a widget, text-widget @ 1146167556 #2
Not sure exactly what you are trying to do but it sounds like you want word that is clicked on. Quick and dirty way would be: $scrolled->selectWord(); my $word = $scrolled->getSelected(); The above will only get a single word, so would be a challenge if you have a link with multiple words. Lame way: create a separate tag for each word and bind that to a sub for that particular word. These seems like a lot of overhead and I would imagine Text widget would have better feature you can leverage on. Efficient way: ? I will leave that up to you ;) or someone else mor...

Problem with tk text widget in displaying Chinese characters, entry widget works fine.
Hi, There seems to be a problem with tk text widget. I am able to edit and see the chinese characters in both entry widget and text widget. When I move from one character to another using arrow key or mouse, it works fine in entry; But in text, it simply mess up. The problem could be that chinese characters are 2 bytes long and cursor moves 1 byte. The text interpreter might be combining the other byte of Chinese character with the 2 bytes of next chinese character. Do I have to change some setting for text widget and/ or install some patch? Thanks, Vikas Vikas Gupta schrieb: > Hi, >...

Text widget
I'm trying to write a text editor with Tk::Text. The Tk::Text widget has a very sophisticated mechanisms using 'tags' for applying formatting (font, size, bold, etc) to the text in the widget. Is there any way to save this formatting when saving the text from the widget to a file? The Tk::TextUndo widget has the Save method - but it strips all tags out and just saves the plain text. I presume one needs a markup language of some sort to represent the tags - and when reading the file back in you apply the tags again. So ... a rich text widget in Tk? Any fancy wa...

Replace text with image in text widget
I'm trying to replace an emoticon with an actual image in a text widget. I know I'm not doing this correctly: the sample code below inserts two images randomly and seems to garble the text in other ways. The idea is to have two emoticons (one on each line) and replace them with an image, nothing more. Can anyone take a look and suggest how I might get this to work? Thanks. --- SPfHZvvOGvfQEvfGdvjQE/rNMfrOMfrNPfvQHfzQHfjQLfrNRvjQL/vRJfzRJvrOWvbMh/3VHPfM h/3WHPzVMP7XF/zVMfrPdv7YGP7YG/7YHPzWPPzWPfvUVP7ZHf7ZIPvWVf7aJv7aJ/7bJv7bM/7b NP7cLf7dMPvXeP7dNvrVlv7eOPrWlvvaevrYmP7gRP7gRf7gRv7i...

redirect text to file; text widget
I've loaded text from a file into the text widget, and having edited it would like to redirect it back into a file, but haven't found a handle for it. If there was an attribute such as the "-textvariable" option for the entry and label widgets, I could echo it into a file from another widget (button, etc).

text widget: loading dumped text?
Is there an easy way to reload information dumped from a text widget? I'm trying to reproduce and report a bug in the text widget and this would help a lot. -- Russell P.S. the bug is that in Aqua 8.4.15 if I scroll to the top of the text widget while some text is elided, often a few lines that *should* be displayed are simply blank. It's fairly reproducible but the data is rather complex. Russell E.
