Monks,

My goal is to open a DialogBox, select the content of its Entry, and focus the Entry. I'm able to do this with the following code; however, if I uncomment the add line for the DynaTabFrame it stops working.

Any ideas on how to get around this? 
use warnings;
use strict;
use Tk;

my $mw = MainWindow->new();
$mw->geometry('100x100');

my $dyna = $mw->DynaTabFrame()->pack();
#$dyna->add('test', -label => 'test');
dialog();

MainLoop();

sub dialog {
    my $text = 'Default';
    my $dialog = $mw->DialogBox(-buttons => ['OK']);
    my $entry = $dialog->Entry(-textvariable => \$text)->pack();
    $entry->selectionRange('0.0', 'end');
    $dialog->configure(-focus => $entry);
    $dialog->Show();
}
