( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I did some testing, \n not found.
use Tk; use Tk::Dialog; use Tk::TableMatrix; my $mw = MainWindow->new; $mw->minsize(600, 300); # minimum size of main window in pixels + my $textfont = '-*-Helvetica-Medium-R-Normal--*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*'; my $arrayVar = {}; while (<DATA>) { my $i = $. - 1; /^([^\t]*)\t([^\t]*)/; $arrayVar->{"$i,0"} = "$1"; $arrayVar->{"$i,1"} = "$2"; } my $t = $mw->Scrolled('TableMatrix', -scrollbars => "osoe", -font => $textfont, -resizeborders => 'none', -rows => 3, -cols => 2, -wrap => 1, -rowheight => 4, -variable => $arrayVar, -colstretchmode => 'all', ); my $buttexit = $mw->Button( -text => "Exit", -command => sub{ $mw->des +troy}); my $buttinfo = $mw->Button( -text => "View cellinfo", -command => sub{ my $cursorpos = $t->icursor(); my $activecont = $t->get(active); my $activeindex = $t->index('active'); my $linebreak; if ($activecont =~ /\n/) {$linebreak = "found"} else {$linebreak = + "not found"}; $mw->Dialog( -title => 'Info', -text => "current cell contains:\n\n$a +ctivecont\n\nindex of active cell: $activeindex\nCursor position with +in cell: $cursorpos\n\nLine break $linebreak", -default_button => 'OK', -buttons => ['OK'] )->Show( ); }); $t->pack(-expand => 1, -fill => 'both'); $buttexit->pack(-expand => 1, -fill => 'both'); $buttinfo->pack(-expand => 1, -fill => 'both'); Tk::MainLoop; __DATA__ this is a relatively long string that will probably end up displayed o +n two lines if the window isn't wide enough blabla foo bar tralla lalala


When I click into the cell with the long text and click the View cell info button, the dialog shows the text without line breaks and reports that \n is "not found".
Am I doing something wrong or is this approach a dead end?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
