Tk button auto repeat
Posted by kenshail (kenshail), 31 July 2005
I am not able to get a Tk button to auto-repeat on hold-down.Using activestate 5.8.4
These are the bare-bones of my latest of many different attempts :
$myBut=$dateFrameA->Button(-text=>"- -",
-width=>2, -height=>1)
->pack();
$myBut->bind('<ButtonPress-1>'=>sub
{
# button callback
});
$myBut->configure( -repeatinterval=>'100',
-repeatdelay=>'100');
Any thoughts would be appreciated

Now why do I know that your questions are always going to be really good ones? 
I'm away at present to don't have a variety of systems to try this out on - but that's what I *would* do if around ... have you tried this under Linux, for example? Knowing if it's OS / release dependend won't solve the problem but it may give you some clues ...
((Having written that, I looked further at your code and wonder if ButtonPress is always going to give you a single event as it's the putting-button-down action, and if Button is the event that will be effected by repeat interval and repeat delays. I may be talking through my hat here ...))
