I have the following problem. In my application I use 'black' theme from ttkthemes, with some additional changes. I also uses dialogs for getting values. I also have created my own dialog with ttk.Combobox widget to allow user to choose a value instead of typing it. The standard dialog uses default style (as it's tk based, not ttk) which is totally OK for me. However in my own dialog, the ttk.Combobox widget uses 'black' theme, when the rest of window uses default one. It doesn't look good . A dialog window uses default theme, when a Combobox in this window uses custom theme What can I do to use 'default' style for the ttk.Combobox in dialog window, when the other comboboxes in main window are still using my style? An example program with parts of my code below import tkinter as tk from tkinter import simpledialog from tkinter import ttk from ttkthemes import ThemedStyle class ComboDialog(tk.simpledialog.Dialog): def __init__(self, title, prompt, values, initial_value = None, parent = None): self.__prompt = prompt self.value = None self.__current_var = tk.StringVar() self.__current_var.set('' if initial_value is None else initial_value) self.__values = values self.__state = 'readonly' super().__init__(parent, title) def body(self, frame): tk.Label(frame, text=self.__prompt, justify=tk.LEFT).grid(row=0, padx=5, sticky=tk.W) # The combobox below is in dialog window, so should have 'default' style self.__entry = ttk.Combobox(frame, state=self.__state, textvariable=self.__current_var) self.__entry.grid(row=1, padx=5, sticky=tk.W+tk.E) self.__entry['values'] = self.__values return self.__entry def apply(self, event=None): self.value = self.__entry.get() @staticmethod def asklist(title, text, values_list : list[str], initial_value : str | None = None, parent = None) -> str: dialog = ComboDialog(title, text, values_list, initial_value = initial_value, parent = parent) return dialog.value # Example program tk_root = tk.Tk() style = ThemedStyle(tk_root) style.set_theme('black') background = style.lookup("TLabel", "background") tk_root.configure(bg=background) frame = ttk.Frame(tk_root) # The combobox below is in main window, so should have 'black' style ttk.Combobox(frame, values=['This', 'is', 'a', 'test'], state='readonly').pack(padx=5, pady=5) ttk.Button(frame, text='Test', command=lambda: ComboDialog.asklist('Test','Select',['abecadlo','z pieca','spadlo'], 'abecadlo')).pack(padx=5, pady=5) frame.pack(padx=5, pady=5, fill=tk.BOTH) tk_root.mainloop() Continue reading...
