Tile Treeview style/look questions

[Adrian Davis]

Is it possible to change the "look" of the tile treeview?

For example:-

*) Is it possible to not have alternate lines coloured?

*) Is it possible to have only the text background of the selected
node highlighted (not the whole line).

*) Is it possible to have "lines" joining the nodes in a tree-like
fashion?

Many Thanks,

To some extent. Probably not enough to do what you want yet.

In 0.7.8 and earlier, the treeview had zebra-stripes whether
you wanted them or not. This feature has been removed in CVS
and in Tk 8.5a7. The plan is to reintroduce it at a later date
via a "-rowtags" option.

-rowtags will specify a list of item tags applied cyclically to
successive rows. For example:

$tv tag configure even -background #CCCCCC
$tv tag configure odd -background #FFFFFF
$tv configure -rowtags {even odd}

Yes, with difficulty.

Not yet, but it's on the List Of Things To Do.
