These are the default bindings:

Click button 1 on entry: Show calendar
Click button 1 outside entry and calendar: Hide calendar
Escape: Hide calendar
CTRL + PAGE UP: Move to the previous month.
CTRL + PAGE DOWN: Move to the next month.
CTRL + SHIFT + PAGE UP: Move to the previous year.
CTRL + SHIFT + PAGE DOWN: Move to the next year.
CTRL + LEFT: Move to the previous day.
CTRL + RIGHT: Move to the next day.
CTRL + UP: Move to the previous week.
CTRL + DOWN: Move to the next week.
CTRL + END: Close the datepicker and erase the date.
CTRL + HOME: Move to the current month.
CTRL + SPACE: Show date on calendar

This trick provides use my other recipe:

https://code.activestate.com/recipes/580794-simple-multicolumn-listbox-for-tkinter/

This recipes defines a Tk_Table: A table that extends the multicolumn listbox adding row numbers, making the cells editable and adding autoscrollbars.

Tk_Table

It has the same options than Multicolumn_Listbox, and some extra parameters to configure the new functionality.

Setting the editable keyword to True, makes the widget editable.

If you want stripped rows, pass the stripped_rows with a tuple (or list) of two colors.

If you want row numbers, then pass to row_numbers parameter a True value.

These are the extra options for this class:

entry_background
entry_foreground
entry_validatecommand
entry_selectbackground
entry_selectborderwidth
entry_selectforeground
scrollbar_background
scrollbar_troughcolor
rowlabel_anchor
rowlabel_minwidth

Pagination widget in Tkinter (Python)

2017-05-01T20:34:49-07:00

Python recipe 580720 by Miguel Martínez López (megawidget, pagination, tkinter). Revision 24.

I added here a pagination widget in tkinter with different styles.

When this option "hide_controls_at_edge" is true, the widget hides "next", "previous", "last" and "first" buttons when they are not necessary. For example when pagination is at the first page then the buttons "previous" and "first" are not strictly necessary. Analogously when pagination is at the last page, the buttons "last" and "next" are not necessary because its not possible to go more forward.

The user can customize the text of "next", "previous", "last" and "first" buttons. When some of these options is None, then the corresponding button is not showed: prev_button. next_button, first_button, last_button

The "command" option is a callback called every time a page is selected.
