How to get the value of a selected treeview item?
23,375
You can get a list of the selected items with the selection
method of the widget. It will return a list of item ids. You can use the item
method to get information about each item.
For example:
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
class App:
def __init__(self):
self.root = tk.Tk()
self.tree = ttk.Treeview()
self.tree.pack(side="top", fill="both")
self.tree.bind("<<TreeviewSelect>>", self.on_tree_select)
for i in range(10):
self.tree.insert("", "end", text="Item %s" % i)
self.root.mainloop()
def on_tree_select(self, event):
print("selected items:")
for item in self.tree.selection():
item_text = self.tree.item(item,"text")
print(item_text)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = App()

I've looked at several posts regarding this and they've done the following
-The output i get is blank
-The output i get is the id, which is practically useless unless somebody can show me how to manipulate it
-No output at all
i just want to be able to click an item in treeview, and instantly be given the text i just clicked
def OnDoubleClick(event): item = course1_assessments.focus() print (item) course1_assessments.bind("<<TreeviewSelect>>", OnDoubleClick)
This code gives me 'I001' if i click the first item, and 'I002' when i click the second; id assume these are column values in the tree, but still useless to me
