Hi,
I'm trying to puzzle out how to configure values in a Tkx combobox. (I am also trying to learn Tkx by programming by example.) I can make pretty comboboxes in a frame and grid them and populate them with ranges of values:
my @days = (1 .. 31);
Tkx::ttk__combobox(".app.date.day", -values => \@days,
                                    -textvariable => \$d,);
Tkx::grid(".app.date.day", -column => 0, -row => 2,
                       -columnspan => 1, -rowspan => 1,
                       -sticky => "nsew");

but when I try to change the values 
@days = qw(1 .. 28);
Tkx::ttk__configure(".app.date.day", -values => \@days,);

[download]

I get the error message:
invalid command name "ttk::configure"

Doesn't work for Tkx::configure either. The Tk docs indicate that configure is the correct way to change -values, but I'm darned if I can make it work.

I'm running ActiveState Perl 5.10 on WinXP with the Tkx 1.05 module.

I'm losing my mind trying to interpret the doc on www.tcl.tk so if anyone wiser than I has an idea which direction to bang my head, I'd appreciate it.
