So I am using xlrd module to read names of excel files of a workbook that user selects. Now this comes up in form of a list, which I am able to put in popup menu drop down(able to select on name at a time) now I want to
So far I am able to use the drop down menu of tkinter with dynamic input but able to select just one name at a time, now I want to select multiple items at a time by adding checkbox to the same. Can anyone help.. Here is sample code on which you anyone may please try adding checkbox and select multiple names at a time.
from tkinter import *
root = Tk()
a = [] #creates a list to store the job names in
var = StringVar() # creates a stringvar to store the value of options
for i in range(20): # fills list with nonsense jobs for troubleshooting
a.append("Job Name "+str(i))
var.set(a[0]) # sets the default option of options
options = OptionMenu(root, var, *a)
# creates an option menu populated with every element of the list
button = Button(root, text="Ok", command=lambda:print(var.get()))
# prints the current value of options
options.pack()
button.pack()
The above code shows a drop down with single select able item, I just want multiple selection functionality enabled by adding checkbox in front of every option
