Python + TKinter + tixDirList

[Debith]

Hi!

I have tried to get very simple thing working, but without success. Used couple of hours to understand, how the tix widgets work, but no luck at all.

Problem description:
dir_list = DirList(master)
dir_list.chdir('c:\\')

Problem is, that chdir just selects the item. I want it to reload the content too. Other words, instead of 'browse', I want 'activate' to happen.

Hi again!

This message seems to be missing answers. Is it because of lack some information?

Here is a full program, where the problem can be inspected:

#!/usr/bin/env python
from Tkinter import *
from Tix import *
import os

os.chdir(r"c:\temp")

root = Tk()
root.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
root.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)

mainframe = Frame(root)
mainframe.grid(column=0, row=0, sticky=(N, W, E, S))
mainframe.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
mainframe.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)

dir_list = DirList(mainframe)
dir_list.grid(column=0, row=0, sticky=(N, W, E, S))
dir_list.chdir('c:\\')

root.mainloop()

In this example, directory contents are shown for c:\temp, which has been the working directory. I'd like to force the update to show the contents of c:
