I once wrote a small addon for Tk::Widget to make the setup of scrollable widget bindings easier and also allow for nested scrollable widgets. Check it out if you like, it made things much easier for me.
file Tk/DynaMouseWheelBind.pm: require Tk::Widget; package Tk::Widget; use strict; use warnings; # keep Tk::Widgets namespace clean my($motion, $do_scroll, $mousewheel_event, $setup, ); sub DynaMouseWheelBind{ my $w = shift; my @classes = @_; my $mw = $w->MainWindow; $setup->($mw); for my $class (@classes) { eval "require $class" or die $@; # initialize class bindings so the following changes # won't get overridden $class->InitClass($mw); # replace MouseWheel bindings - these should be processed # through the $mw binding only my @mw_events = ('<MouseWheel>', '<4>', '<5>', ); $mw->bind($class,$_,'') for (@mw_events); $mw->bind($class,'<<DynaMouseWheel>>',$do_scroll); } } # setup two bindings to track the window under the cursor # and globally receive <MouseWheel> $setup = sub{ my $mw = shift; $mw->bind('all','<Motion>',$motion); # could be <Enter> as well $mw->bind('all','<MouseWheel>',[$mousewheel_event, Tk::Ev('D')]); $mw->bind('all','<4>',[$mousewheel_event, 120]); $mw->bind('all','<5>',[$mousewheel_event, -120]); }; { my $under_cursor ; my $scrollable; my $delta; $motion = sub { $under_cursor = $_[0]->XEvent->Info('W'); }; $do_scroll = sub{ $scrollable->yview('scroll', -($delta/120)*3, 'units'); }; $mousewheel_event = sub{ my $widget = shift; $delta = shift; # just in case, the mouse has not been moved yet: my $w = $under_cursor ||= $widget; my @tags = $w->bindtags; my $has_binding; until ($has_binding || $w->isa('Tk::Toplevel')){ if($w->Tk::bind(ref($w),'<<DynaMouseWheel>>')){ $has_binding = 1 ; }else{ $w = $w->parent; } } if ($has_binding) { $scrollable = $w; $w->eventGenerate('<<DynaMouseWheel>>'); } }; } # end of scope for $under_cursor, $scrollable, $delta 1;
#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Tk; my $mw = new MainWindow; $mw->DynaMouseWheelBind('Tk::Canvas'); ## add more as needed like Tk:: +Text etc. my $main = $mw -> Scrolled("Canvas", -scrollbars=>'e', )-> pack(-side => 'left', -fill => 'both', -expand => 1); my $see = "\nHaaa, See that and die!"; my $info = $main->createText(180, 15, -text => "$see", -font => 'Arial 11 bold' , -fill => 'red'); $main->configure(-scrollregion => [0,0,2000 , 2000]); my $canvas_cube = $main->Scrolled('Canvas',-width => 30, -height => 30 +, -background => 'green'); $canvas_cube->createText(15, 30, -text => "foo", -font => 'Arial 11 bo +ld'); $canvas_cube->configure(-scrollregion => [0,0,100 , 100]); $main ->createWindow(75,75, -window => $canvas_cube); $main->focus; MainLoop;
