[Tkinter-discuss] Tkinter Menu

[Metz, Bobby W, WWCS]

Deleting is easiest using the index feature.  In your case:

if menu.index("last") is not None:
	menu.delete(0, menu.index("last") - 2)

Thanks Jeff.

I have a menu with x number of entries. I wanted to delete all the 
entries except the last two and then rebuild the amended entries.

I couldn't find any way to determine the *number* of entries, or iterate

over them. I ended up keeping a separate list of the entries and calling
:

menu.delete(0, numMenuItems - 1)

followed by a series of inserts... It works, so I'm not worried. :-)

All the best,
