I have a tkinter app that has 2 frames. The frame on the left has a bunch of buttons and the frame on the right has a text widget. I use the create_buttons function below to make the buttons. Is there a way to have the button stay sunken when clicked. Then when I click the next button that one stays sunken? I want to be able to see the last button clicked.
def create_buttons(self):
'''
Loop that creates a button for each file in lterrors.txt. The buttons uses the client/server name as its title
text and a custom action that opens the appropriate file in the text widget.
'''
try:
with open(App.logfile, 'r') as f:
lines = f.readlines()
except IOError:
message = 'Cannot find %s.' % (App.logfile)
showerror(title='Sorry', message=message)
labels = []
for i, line in enumerate(lines):
filename = line.strip()
filename = filename.replace('C:\LTShare', 'L:')
host = os.path.dirname(filename)
company = os.path.dirname(host)
company = os.path.basename(company)
host = os.path.split(host)[-1]
host = host.split('-')[0]
text = company + '-' + host
labels.append((text, filename))
labels.sort()
for i, data in enumerate(labels):
text, filename = data
button = Button(self.frame1, text=text, command=lambda filename=filename: self.button_command(filename))
button.grid(row=i, column=0, sticky='EW')
