***checkButtonToggle*** '''Current Version: 1.8''' SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl-checkbuttontoggle/ [bll] 2016-4-26. This code provides an alternative styling of [ttk::checkbutton] as a toggle switch. This style of switch is becoming more common in user interfaces. There are currently 13 different switch styles in order to support the 30 different ttk themes. The package will select a toggle switch style upon load, and a bind to <> sets it when the theme is changed. The user can set any of the themes as a default and can use multiple themes. The package should be "required" after [tk scaling] is set. '''Download from:''' https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl-checkbuttontoggle/files/checkButtonToggle-1.8.zip/download '''Version 1.8''' 2018-7-29 * Added support for the equilux theme. <>Change Log '''Version 1.7''' 2018-7-22 * Added support for the scid* themes. '''Version 1.6''' 2018-4-23 * Added support to check for and use the graphite color theme on Mac OS X. * 2018-5-10: Now available on SourceForge. '''Version 1.5''' 2016-10-29 * Images have been rebuilt and are much better quality. * Many different image sizes for different display resolutions. The widget size should match up to your [tk scaling] setting better. '''Version 1.4''' 2016-5-22 * Updated the images. * Updated the scaling (now uses 100%/150%/200% rather than 100/150/250) '''Version 1.3''' 2016-5-17 * Remove unnecessary stuff. * Updated the images. * Updated the scaling. [bll] 2016-5-2. I have updated the package to include multiple sizes of images and depending on the [tk scaling] value, it changes which set of images gets displayed. No idea if I got the scaling quite right, but a quick test looks ok. <> <>Demo Code checkButtonToggle demo code ====== #!/usr/bin/env tclsh package require Tk package require checkButtonToggle proc dodisable { c } { variable vars if { $vars(disabled.$c) } { .cb$c state disabled } else { .cb$c state !disabled } } proc setDisplay { c } { variable vars set vars(onoff.$c) 0 set vars(disabled.$c) 0 ttk::label .l$c \ -text $c set tc [string totitle $c] ttk::checkbutton .cb$c \ -variable vars(onoff.$c) \ -text {} \ -style $tc.Toggle.TCheckbutton ttk::checkbutton .dis$c \ -variable vars(disabled.$c) \ -text Disable \ -command [list dodisable $c] grid .l$c .cb$c .dis$c -padx 3p -pady 1p grid configure .l$c -sticky e } proc demo { } { variable vars # this is not very interesting unless there are some non-standard themes loaded. foreach {c} [lsort [ttk::style theme names]] { checkButtonToggle::init $c setDisplay $c } } demo ====== <> [checkButtonToggle-demo] <>Discussion ****Discussion**** [aspect] 2016-04-28: beautiful widget and a '''very''' nice example of how to do custom layout with [ttk]. One question - is there any particular reason you excluded `Checkbutton.focus` from the layout? I much prefer having it to aid keyboard navigation & accessibility. Adding it back as a parent of the new `indicator` element ''seems'' to work, but I've only tested very roughly with the provided demo. [bll] 2016-4-27: I copied a layout from another theme. Sorry, did not check the original. I have updated the code below to match the default ttk::checkbutton. ---- [JOB] Thank you [bll] for providing the source. Just like to let you know, that there is something going wrong with the images provided in the package. ====== Error in startup script: compressed data after stream finalize in PNG data while executing image create photo -data $imgdata($dnm) ... ====== Running on windows with a plain ActiveState installation. [bll] 2015-5-3: Let me research this. It works for me in some instances and not others. This is quite odd. It works as part of my application, but it does not work as a standalone script. I found this: http://rkeene.org/projects/tcl/tk.fossil/info/c648c8dad1%|%http://rkeene.org/projects/tcl/tk.fossil/info/c648c8dad1%|% And ActiveState still doesn't have 8.6.5 out. Always requiring the Img package works. I have updated the code to require the Img package for Tcl <8.6.5. ---- '''[arjen] - 2016-05-03 10:44:33''' I downloaded the source code and the demo works fine. Some variants look rather similar, but that may be my display. [bll] 2016-5-3: I think it is how I wrote the demo code. It lists the 7 styles (variants), then displays the toggle switch that would be displayed for any themes that are loaded. Which, being standard themes, all use the same style/variant. ---- '''[JOB] - 2016-05-03''' Downloaded again and it works flawlessly on windows. I got more adventurous and tested it on OSX too, but here the checkbutton is only a grey box. Have not investigated any further. Looks on windows very promising. Thank you very much [bll]. [bll] 2016-5-3: Works ok on the Mac for me. <>
