我为tkinter制作了一个占位符,并想将其推广,但是如果用户输入与占位符相同的文本,该占位符应该发生的所有效果都将实现到文本上。无论如何要克服这个问题?

占位符:

import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk

class PlaceholderEntry(tk.Entry):
    '''
    Custom modern Placeholder Entry box, takes positional argument master and placeholder\n
    Use ret() for getting output from entry widget\n
    Use ins() for inserting into entry widget\n
    Use remove() for deleting from entry widget\n
    ISSUES: What if the user types exactly same text as the placeholders in the entrybox?
    '''

    def __init__(self, master, placeholder, **kwargs):
        # style for ttk widget
        self.s = ttk.Style()
        self.s.configure('my.TEntry')

        # init entry box
        ttk.Entry.__init__(self, master, style='my.TEntry', **kwargs)
        self.text = placeholder

        # add placeholder if box empty
        self.add()

        # bindings of the widget
        self.bind('<FocusIn>', self.clear)
        self.bind('<FocusOut>', self.add)
        self.bind_all('<Key>', self.normal)
        self.bind_all('<Button-1>', self.cursor)

    def clear(self, *args):
        if self.get() == self.text:  # remove placeholder when focus gain
            self.delete(0, tk.END)
            self.s.configure('my.TEntry', foreground='black',
                             font=(0, 0, 'normal'))

    def add(self, *args):
        if self.get() == '':  # if no text add placeholder
            self.s.configure('my.TEntry', foreground='grey',
                             font=(0, 0, 'bold'))
            self.insert(0, self.text)  # insert placeholder
            self.icursor(0)  # move insertion cursor to start of entrybox

    def normal(self, *args):
        self.s.configure('my.TEntry', foreground='black',
                         font=(0, 0, 'normal'))  # set normal font
        self.add()  # if empty add placeholder
        if self.get() == self.text:  # clear the placeholder if starts typing
            self.bind('<Key>', self.clear)
            self.icursor(-1)  # keep insertion cursor to the end

    def ret(self):  # custom method to get the text
        if self.get() == self.text:
            return None
        else:
            return self.get()

    def ins(self, index, string):  # custom method to insert into entry
        self.clear()
        self.insert(index, string)

    def remove(self, first, last):  # custom method to remove from entry
        if self.get() != self.text:
            self.delete(first, last)
            self.add()

    def cursor(self, *args):  # method to not allow user to move cursor when placeholder there
        if self.get() == self.text:
            self.icursor(0)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    root = tk.Tk()
    plc = PlaceholderEntry(root,placeholder='Type')
    plc.pack(padx=10,pady=10)
    root.mainloop()

您可以通过在框上键入Type来重现该问题,因为它会将条目误认为是占位符,因此它将删除进一步的插入内容。

先谢谢您了:D

由于具有自定义类,因此在添加占位符文本时很容易设置标记,而在删除占位符时很容易取消设置。然后,只需检查获取值时是否设置了标志即可。

def add(self, *args):
    if self.get() == '':  # if no text add placeholder
        ...
        self._has_placeholder = True

def clear(self, *args):
    if self.get() == self.text:  # remove placeholder when focus gain
        self._has_placeholder = False
        ...

有点棘手的解决方案,但为什么不在占位符文本的开头添加空格(或不可打印的字符)

plc = PlaceholderEntry(root,placeholder=' Type')

self.text = "\x00" + placeholder

这将确保用户输入的文本与占位符文本不匹配
