Cell configuration with ttk::treeview and tk::tablelist

[eras.r...@gmail.com]

Hi

I have tried to configure certain cell of table with ttk::treeview and tk::tablelist, but not succeed yet.

For example i want to set background color of certain cell (not all row or column).

tk::tablelist seems to work, if i don't sort the table afterwards. But i need sorting. Do i need to build some clever code or are there exist some special way to do that by tk::tablelist ?

Are there exists some handle to certain cell, which is "permanent" ?

Have you any ideas how to solve this problem ?

If you set the background color of a tablelist cell (by using the
cellconfigure subcommand) then the new background color will persist
(you don't need any special code to ensure this).

That is true, but if i would want to change the color of the cell after a sorting. It is not at same position longer. How do i know, what is the new position of the cell, so i can change it's color ?

Please look at: getkeys and getfullkeys commands. Keys obtained from these commands can be used as row index.

Each item of a tablelist widget has a unique sequence number that remains unchanged until the item is deleted, thus acting as a key that uniquely identifies the item even if the latter's position (i.e., numerical row index) changes. This command provides read-only access to the full keys obtained by prepending the letter k to these internal item IDs.

Thanks you :)

That was exactly i was looking for. There was also "-name" in rowconfigure-command if i want use names (not numbers).

Yes, that is another way you can go, but it needs extra rowconfigure
invocations and is less performant than using getkeys or getfullkeys.
