combobox Question

  1. Default combobox Question

    Hello,

    is there a combobox which can handle a 'show-value' and a 'set-value'?

    I want to populate a combobox with the values "one" "two" "three" but want the widgets variable be set to "1" "2" "3" - or
    if the variable is set to i.E. "1" the shown value should be set to "one"



    Thanks for help,
    Matthias

    This is something you may just want to manage yourself, keeping a list
    of "real" values paralleling the "display" values in the combobox.

    There's a listbox example here that illustrates this (the ttk::combobox
    works pretty much the same way):

    Hope this helps.
