What is new in Tablelist 7.4.1?
Hi Csaba,
Many thanks for your great work with Tablelist, Wcb, Mentry, Scrollutil
and much else.
May I ask for one tiny, near-trivial change?
Please will you change the subject of these announcements to specify the
name and version of the package before the description? (So, for
instance, "ANNOUNCE: Tabelist version 7.4.1 Multi-column listbox and
tree widget package".)
This would make it easier for people, like me, whose newsreader elides
the title. At present, I need to open the message or scroll the
newsreader index to see how many versions behind I am, and therefore how
hard to think about updating. You're right, I am VERY lazy :-).
Thanks again
Alan

tree widget package Tablelist.
What is new in Tablelist 7.5?
-----------------------------
1. Support for interactive cell editing with the aid of the new
toggleswitch widget.
2. Improvements related to the use of various system colors on aqua and
win32.
3. The scaleutil package now also scales the "-sashthickness" and
"-gripsize" options of the "Sash" style.
4. New demo script "tileWidgets2.tcl", in which toggleswitch rather than >>> ttk::checkbutton widgets are used for the editing of boolean values. >>>
5. Made the retrieval of the row index corresponding to a given viewable >>> row offset more robust (thanks to Alexandru Dadalau for his bug
report).
6. Fixed a bug related to the "-allowduplicates" column configuration
option and the "-forceeditendcommand" global option.
How to get it?
--------------
Tablelist is available for free download from the URL
https://www.nemethi.de
The distribution file is "tablelist7.5.tar.gz" for UNIX and
"tablelist7_5.zip" for Windows. These files contain the same
information, except for the additional carriage return character
preceding the linefeed at the end of each line in the text files for
Windows.
Tablelist is also included in tklib, which has the address
https://core.tcl.tk/tklib
How to install it?
------------------
Install the package as a subdirectory of one of the directories given
by the "auto_path" variable. For example, you can install it as a
subdirectory of the "lib" directory within your Tcl/Tk installation.
To install Tablelist on UNIX, "cd" to the desired directory and unpack
the distribution file "tablelist7.5.tar.gz":
gunzip -c tablelist7.5.tar.gz | tar -xf -
On most UNIX systems this can be replaced with
tar -zxf tablelist7.5.tar.gz
Both commands will create a directory named "tablelist7.5 with the
subdirectories "demos", "doc", and "scripts".
On Windows, use WinZip or some other program capable of unpacking the
distribution file "tablelist7_5.zip" into the directory "tablelist7.5",
with the subdirectories "demos", "doc", and "scripts".
How to use it?
--------------
The Tablelist distribution provides two packages, called Tablelist and
Tablelist_tile. The main difference between the two is that
Tablelist_tile enables the tile-based, theme-specific appearance of
tablelist widgets; this package requires tile 0.6 or higher. It is not >>> possible to use both packages in one and the same application, because
both are implemented in the same "tablelist" namespace and provide
identical commands.
To be able to access the commands and variables of the Tablelist
package, your scripts must contain one of the lines
package require tablelist ?version?
package require Tablelist ?version?
Likewise, to be able to access the commands and variables of the
Tablelist_tile package, your scripts must contain one of the lines
package require tablelist_tile ?version?
package require Tablelist_tile ?version?
Since the packages Tablelist and Tablelist_tile are implemented in the
"tablelist" namespace, you must either import the procedures you need,
or use qualified names like "tablelist::tablelist".
For a detailed description of the commands and variables provided by
Tablelist and of the examples contained in the "demos" directory, see
the tutorial "tablelist.html" and the reference pages, all located in
the "doc" directory.
A couple of little peeves...
I downloaded Tablelist7.5 (I'm a long-term user of Tablelist and I
think it's great; many, many thanks.) I was interested to see the new
toggleswitch widget so I tried to run the tileWidgest2.tcl demo
script. This fails because it can't [package require tsw].
I'm not sure that I'm so interested to see the new widget that I want
to go ahead with downloading it, so I thought I'd look at the
documentation. The tablelist documentation has a new entry
"Interactive Tablelist Cell Editting Using the Tsw Package" that links
to https://www.nemethi.de/tablelist/tablelistTsw.html, but when I
click on it, I get a page inviting me to accept cookies and if I say
I'm happy with the cookie settings I have, I just get a blank page. I
don't get either the prompt or the blank page if I try to follow any
of the other "Interactive Tablelist Cell Editting..." links.
These are just little peeves; I think Tablelist is a great package and
I can't imagine life without it.
I've just fired up another browser and accepted cookies - https:// www.nemethi.de/tablelist/tablelistTsw.html does not look right *AT ALL*.
