Binding Dropdown Menus and Combo Boxes - Python Tkinter GUI Tutorial #45

In this video I'll show you how to bind drop down menus (OptionMenus) and Combo Boxes with tKinter and Python so that you don't have to click a button to take action based on your selection.
Normally, after you select something from a drop down menu, you have to then click a button to take some action. But what if you could take the action just based on clicking and selecting from the drop down menu itself...without clicking a button afterward?
That's what I'll show you in this video...

I'd like to see how to do this where the options are the results of a function. So if I'm pulling employee names from file names with a function getEmployeeName, how do I assign the output of that function to the Options for the drop down. As you've shown here, its not very flexible. I need to be able to have the options change according to the files selected.

[@MultiGoldensilver]

which video covers combo boxes?

[@jerrysavarino2113]

Hi John. Loving your videos! One aspect of my app that I am struggling with is that I have around 6 different comboboxes. 1 combobox is the 'master' whereby whatever value is selected from the list, will make 1 or 2 comboboxes (depending which ones are relevant) appear. Each time you select a different value from this 1 combobox, the linked comboxes are hidden/shown. I am trying to use a bind on the 'master' combobox and then in that function, create multiple 'if' statements to link the other comboxes to the relevant value in the 'master' combobox. I am trying to add a .destroy() in this function so that the non-related comboboxes are hidden but it doesn't really seem to be working. Is there a better way to do this? Hope I have explained my issue ok!

[@Codemycom]

If you destroy a thing, it's gone for good...you likely don't want to do that. You can just hide it with pack_forget() and reshow it again with pack()

[@jerrysavarino2113]

Hi John, can we jump to a particular spot of the dropdown list instead of scrolling all the way down? Say by clicking "S" on the keyboard which then send us to "Saturday"?

[@mounttaineer]

HI, great videos. I have a combobox which then has a dependent listbox that brings up several option based on the drop down value. i was able to do it by using another of your tutorial, it is really cool, and I would not have been able to do it just by reading the descriptions. I also want to display the value of the drop down as you show in this video, and I have that working. The issue I am having is getting both of the functions working when in the binding, only the last function listed works. I tried two separate functions, still only the last one works, I tried using comma or "And" between the two, but still only the last function called will work. my_combo.bind("", display, parks_listbox) - here is a universal version of my bind code. Any ideas?

[@Codemycom]

Call the other function from inside the first function, passing whatever along inside it: second_function(pass_a_thing)

[@jacktoddy9783]

Now, here's the thing - I make useful applications for people to interface with, such as quiz tables for self-assessment respecting climate change. The sort of thing whereby you open a box, select a button; and that loops to another issue through combi dropdowns - all old fashioned I guess. Why? because human life is complex when taking in account all of the intricate paths and foibles we possess. People like 'buttons' and 'boxes' as they wish to open the combi box; it is intuitive to them. Whereby, they select an option and scroll on through to another set of questions; and so on ... If a box appears, that imprints into their minds better - the lesson of 'what they are responsible for through their actions' registers. The point I am making is that although this is an excellent tutorial video, you appear to be a 'coder' rather than a 'programmer'. To me the difference is huge. One provides the code, the other is more philosophical through knowing what to design code for - the end product's purpose. I would have liked this video more if it had buttons designed into the GUI. Nonetheless, I have subscribed to your channel.

well the name of the channel is codemy.com...so yeah, I focus on coding.

Otherwise, the rest of the code works as expected. Can any one help with this, or has anyone experienced this before.

Hi, 1st of all, you are doing an amazing job, I want to knw hw to change font/Size of options of the combobox, n can i set it to Readonly, whats syntax for that? Also how to change font/size of whatever we are displaying through myLabel = Label(root, text= " ")

[@alphainfinitum3445]

Let me answer at least your first question. To make the combobox read-only, you should include inside its definition an option called 'state', and set that equal to 'readonly'. So here is the syntax: myBox=ttk.Combobox(root, state='readonly', font=(' ',15),...and so on). That should make the combobox read-only. The way I defined the font here will adjust the size of the selection inside the combo box, but not its drop down menu. So you will notice that the size of the drop-down menu itself will not change. I discovered a way to tackle that, but it's too complicated to describe here. If you have solved that problem and an easier solution please share it with us.

​@@Codemycom holy crap i just saw ur linked in: bannerclicks, vitalbio, submission-spider... i don't know if you yourself responded to me, but if you are John Elder, why do you do these tutorials (i mean to ask with genuine, heart-felt curiosity)? What drives you to these specific actions (teaching on youtube)?
