Version 9 of Multicolumn listbox

Updated 2010-12-18 14:32:32 by zhangweiwu

There are a variety of ways of displaying multiple columns of data

Multiple fields:

• [ttk::treeview], shipped with tk since 8.5, can do multi-column list and have an example in the package.
• tablelist (pure Tcl, edit, images, sort, reorder columns)
• mclistbox (pure Tcl)
• heirtable from blt (images?, heirarchical, sort)
• listcontrol from mkWidgets
• tktable creates a widget command called table and installs its doc as tkTable (even though to require the package, you use Tktable).
• TableList from incr Tk
• WISH List by David McClamrock
• A minimal multi listboxes megawidget
• treectrl
• displaying tables
• spreadsheet/table widget
• table widget
• table listbox widget
• A minimal table example
• Draw a table on a canvas
• tables
• tree table
• MegaWidget for tabular data
• table.tcl

Single field broken across multiple columns:

• ListBox from BWidget
• ?

There are many ways of constructing simple table without using any specialized table widget. For example, packing a list of listboxes; layout many a entry / label using grid geometry manager of tk or the much older table geometry manager from BLT.

LV 2007-12018 I was looking at http://extjs.com/ , which provides a JavaScript table with many useful features. One of the features that I particularly liked was how by default, if the user makes a change in a table cell, the widget adds a tic mark indicating that it has been changed. That isn't the only nice feature - but certain one that I found appealing. Does anyone know of a Tk based table widget that provides that sort of functionality built in?
