1 | """Drag-and-drop support for Tkinter.
|
---|
2 |
|
---|
3 | This is very preliminary. I currently only support dnd *within* one
|
---|
4 | application, between different windows (or within the same window).
|
---|
5 |
|
---|
6 | I an trying to make this as generic as possible -- not dependent on
|
---|
7 | the use of a particular widget or icon type, etc. I also hope that
|
---|
8 | this will work with Pmw.
|
---|
9 |
|
---|
10 | To enable an object to be dragged, you must create an event binding
|
---|
11 | for it that starts the drag-and-drop process. Typically, you should
|
---|
12 | bind <ButtonPress> to a callback function that you write. The function
|
---|
13 | should call Tkdnd.dnd_start(source, event), where 'source' is the
|
---|
14 | object to be dragged, and 'event' is the event that invoked the call
|
---|
15 | (the argument to your callback function). Even though this is a class
|
---|
16 | instantiation, the returned instance should not be stored -- it will
|
---|
17 | be kept alive automatically for the duration of the drag-and-drop.
|
---|
18 |
|
---|
19 | When a drag-and-drop is already in process for the Tk interpreter, the
|
---|
20 | call is *ignored*; this normally averts starting multiple simultaneous
|
---|
21 | dnd processes, e.g. because different button callbacks all
|
---|
22 | dnd_start().
|
---|
23 |
|
---|
24 | The object is *not* necessarily a widget -- it can be any
|
---|
25 | application-specific object that is meaningful to potential
|
---|
26 | drag-and-drop targets.
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | Potential drag-and-drop targets are discovered as follows. Whenever
|
---|
29 | the mouse moves, and at the start and end of a drag-and-drop move, the
|
---|
30 | Tk widget directly under the mouse is inspected. This is the target
|
---|
31 | widget (not to be confused with the target object, yet to be
|
---|
32 | determined). If there is no target widget, there is no dnd target
|
---|
33 | object. If there is a target widget, and it has an attribute
|
---|
34 | dnd_accept, this should be a function (or any callable object). The
|
---|
35 | function is called as dnd_accept(source, event), where 'source' is the
|
---|
36 | object being dragged (the object passed to dnd_start() above), and
|
---|
37 | 'event' is the most recent event object (generally a <Motion> event;
|
---|
38 | it can also be <ButtonPress> or <ButtonRelease>). If the dnd_accept()
|
---|
39 | function returns something other than None, this is the new dnd target
|
---|
40 | object. If dnd_accept() returns None, or if the target widget has no
|
---|
41 | dnd_accept attribute, the target widget's parent is considered as the
|
---|
42 | target widget, and the search for a target object is repeated from
|
---|
43 | there. If necessary, the search is repeated all the way up to the
|
---|
44 | root widget. If none of the target widgets can produce a target
|
---|
45 | object, there is no target object (the target object is None).
|
---|
46 |
|
---|
47 | The target object thus produced, if any, is called the new target
|
---|
48 | object. It is compared with the old target object (or None, if there
|
---|
49 | was no old target widget). There are several cases ('source' is the
|
---|
50 | source object, and 'event' is the most recent event object):
|
---|
51 |
|
---|
52 | - Both the old and new target objects are None. Nothing happens.
|
---|
53 |
|
---|
54 | - The old and new target objects are the same object. Its method
|
---|
55 | dnd_motion(source, event) is called.
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | - The old target object was None, and the new target object is not
|
---|
58 | None. The new target object's method dnd_enter(source, event) is
|
---|
59 | called.
|
---|
60 |
|
---|
61 | - The new target object is None, and the old target object is not
|
---|
62 | None. The old target object's method dnd_leave(source, event) is
|
---|
63 | called.
|
---|
64 |
|
---|
65 | - The old and new target objects differ and neither is None. The old
|
---|
66 | target object's method dnd_leave(source, event), and then the new
|
---|
67 | target object's method dnd_enter(source, event) is called.
|
---|
68 |
|
---|
69 | Once this is done, the new target object replaces the old one, and the
|
---|
70 | Tk mainloop proceeds. The return value of the methods mentioned above
|
---|
71 | is ignored; if they raise an exception, the normal exception handling
|
---|
72 | mechanisms take over.
|
---|
73 |
|
---|
74 | The drag-and-drop processes can end in two ways: a final target object
|
---|
75 | is selected, or no final target object is selected. When a final
|
---|
76 | target object is selected, it will always have been notified of the
|
---|
77 | potential drop by a call to its dnd_enter() method, as described
|
---|
78 | above, and possibly one or more calls to its dnd_motion() method; its
|
---|
79 | dnd_leave() method has not been called since the last call to
|
---|
80 | dnd_enter(). The target is notified of the drop by a call to its
|
---|
81 | method dnd_commit(source, event).
|
---|
82 |
|
---|
83 | If no final target object is selected, and there was an old target
|
---|
84 | object, its dnd_leave(source, event) method is called to complete the
|
---|
85 | dnd sequence.
|
---|
86 |
|
---|
87 | Finally, the source object is notified that the drag-and-drop process
|
---|
88 | is over, by a call to source.dnd_end(target, event), specifying either
|
---|
89 | the selected target object, or None if no target object was selected.
|
---|
90 | The source object can use this to implement the commit action; this is
|
---|
91 | sometimes simpler than to do it in the target's dnd_commit(). The
|
---|
92 | target's dnd_commit() method could then simply be aliased to
|
---|
93 | dnd_leave().
|
---|
94 |
|
---|
95 | At any time during a dnd sequence, the application can cancel the
|
---|
96 | sequence by calling the cancel() method on the object returned by
|
---|
97 | dnd_start(). This will call dnd_leave() if a target is currently
|
---|
98 | active; it will never call dnd_commit().
