Is there a way to set copy and paste bindings on cyrillic layout?

[serghPeppa]

In Cyrillic layout copy and paste works on same keys but 'v' is 'м'(em), and 'c' is 'с'(es). And when i change layout to Russian or Ukrainian copy and paste stops working in sheet.

Also i have this peace of code that work for my window, except sheet, maybe this can help you

def _onKeyRelease(event):
    ctrl  = (event.state & 0x4) != 0

    if event.keycode==86 and  ctrl and event.keysym.lower() != "v": 
        event.widget.event_generate("<<Paste>>")

    if event.keycode==67 and  ctrl and event.keysym.lower() != "c":
        event.widget.event_generate("<<Copy>>")

main.bind_all("<Key>", _onKeyRelease, "+")

Hello,

Thanks for your question and the interesting code snippet,

I am not sure how best to get those custom events working in tksheet at the moment, it will take some experimentation if I do decide to implement it

In the meantime, would this solution work for you? You can replace the characters with whichever you need

sheet.set_options(paste_bindings=["<Control-м>", "<Control-М>"])

It's not working if i type cyrillic symbol inside it. It gives this error: _tkinter.TclError: bad event type or keysym "с" Maybe you can make an overload of this option, where I will be able to use keycode instead of keysym? This will immediately solve my problem.

Hello,

I am working on this and I think I have a solution that will make the code you provided work for tksheet, meaning that widget.event_generate("<<Copy>>") will tell tksheet to run the copy function.

I am not currently working on ways of binding the keycodes though sorry, this seems a bit more complex and would warrant more investigation.

There will also separately be an optional way of specifically binding the "<<Copy>>" event to tksheet.

Your help has been invaluable in figuring this out thank you, I will let you know when there is a new release

I'm very glad to hear this! I hope you can do this. Thank you for your work!

Hello,

I have released a new version which should allow you to call event_generate() on a Sheet, with "<<Copy>>" and so also for paste, delete, cut, undo, redo and selectall

Some new documentation here: https://github.com/ragardner/tksheet/wiki/Version-7#tkinter-and-tksheet-events

Version 7.1.22

Addressed:

• Issue 222
• Issue 223

Fixed:

• Massive lag when pasting large amounts of data, caused by using Python csv.Sniffer().sniff() without setting sample size, now only samples 5000 characters max

Changed:

• Added widget key to emitted event dicts which can be either the header, index or table canvas. If you're using pickle on tksheet event dicts then you may need to delete the widget key beforehand
• Added Highlight, add_highlight, new_tk_event and get_csv_str_dialect to tksheet namespace
• Some old functions which used to return None now return self (Sheet)
• Re-add old highlighting functions to docs
• Event data from moving rows/columns while rows/columns are hidden no longer returns all displayed row/column indexes in the dict keys ["moved"]["rows"]["data"]/["moved"]["columns"]["data"] but instead returns only the rows/columns which were originally moved.
• Add Shift-Return to text editor newline bindings
• Internal close_text_editor() function parameters
• Function close_text_editor() now closes all text editors that are open

Added:

• New parameters to dropdown():
  • edit_data to disable editing of data when creating the dropdowns
  • set_values so a dict of cell/column/row coordinates and values can be provided instead of using set_value for every cell in the span
• New emitted events - issue 223:
  • "<<Copy>>"
  • "<<Cut>>"
  • "<<Paste>>"
  • "<<Delete>>"
  • "<<Undo>>"
  • "<<Redo>>"
  • "<<SelectAll>>"

Improved:

• Dropdown box scrollbars will only display when necessary
• Some themes colors
• Old function highlight_cells() slight performance boost when calling it thousands of times
• Added parameters back to the functions dropdown()/checkbox() for help when writing code

You are a genius! You solve it so quick and elegant! Thank you! But there was a little issue, if you want your sheet to be readonly you need to set filter on Canvas in your <<Paste>> event:

def _onKeyRelease(event):
    ctrl  = (event.state & 0x4) != 0
    if event.keycode==86 and  ctrl and event.keysym.lower() != "v": 
        if event.widget.winfo_class() not in ("Canvas"):
            event.widget.event_generate("<<Paste>>")

    if event.keycode==67 and  ctrl and event.keysym.lower() != "c":
        event.widget.event_generate("<<Copy>>")

main.bind_all("<Key>", _onKeyRelease, "+")

But for me it's 100% resolved. And again, thank you so much!
