Use in your project

The EditTree inherits ttk.Treeview and should be a straight replacement for it.

Install module, and add

from edit_tree import EditTree

then change ttk.Treeview to EditTree

OR if your using ttkbootstrap, add

from edit_tree.tableview import EditTree

and change ttk.tableview.Tableview to EditTree

Bind to event <<ET_Accept>> to respond to data changes.

table.bind('<<ET_Accept>>', data_edited)

Values available from event parameter:-

event.widget.last_edit_cell # data index (row, col)
evnt.widget.last_edit_start # cell value at begin edit
evnt.widget.last_edit_end   # cell value at accept edit

Known issues

• When scrolling the underlying Treeview, destroying the entry widget is not always handled.

• The unbind_all used to remove the scrollwheel binding can also remove bindings added elsewhere.
