I want to replace the menu on my application with the more appropriate
notebook. After looking at examples in my reference books and on the Web I
still cannot get it working properly.
Here's a small example (nbtest.py):
---8< -----------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
from tkinter.ttk import Notebook as n
class Test(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
# notebook
n = ttk.Notebook(self)
self.tab1 = ttk.Frame(n) # activities
self.tab2 = ttk.Frame(n) # people
self.tab3 = ttk.Frame(n) # locations
self.tab4 = ttk.Frame(n) # organizations
self.tab5 = ttk.Frame(n) # reports
self.tab6 = ttk.Frame(n) # lookup tables
self.add(tab1, text='Activities')
self.add(tab2, text='People')
self.add(tab3, text='Locations')
self.add(tab4, text='Organizations')
self.add(tab5, text='Reports')
self.add(tab6, text='Lookups')
n.pack(expand = 1, fill ="both")
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = Test()
app.mainloop()
---->8 -------------------------
python-3.9.1 returns:
$ ./nbtest.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/rshepard/development/business_tracker/./nbtest.py", line 32, in <module>
app = Test()
File "/home/rshepard/development/business_tracker/./nbtest.py", line 22, in __init__
self.add(tab1, text='Activities')
File "/usr/lib64/python3.9/tkinter/__init__.py", line 2346, in __getattr__
return getattr(self.tk, attr)
AttributeError: '_tkinter.tkapp' object has no attribute 'add'
Explanation of the error and suggestions for ttk.notebook references are
needed.
TIA,
Rich
