Doubt approach update 2 Treeview at the same time

[TomasSanchexx]

Hello,

I would like some guidance on a question / problem I have.

I'm doing a task that consists of an inventory system, things so far very well.

I have made a tkinter window with a "notebook" menu, (inventory/sale)

In notebook 1 I have done a "treeview" that shows mysql data, and buttons to add, delete and update product, so far everything is perfect.

The question I have now is when creating "notebook 2" (sales), that I will make another Treeview and show the same data, but my question is how can I update the "2 Treeviews" at the same time. Because only the one I interacted with is updated, and the other treeview is updated when I interact or restart the application.

Is there any way or way to be able to update the two Treeview at the same time?

I have thought about after(), but I don't know if it is a good option or there is another option.

Any additional information would be appreciated.

Can you see both views at the same time? If not, only update the visible view. The hidden view should update when it becomes visible. This should be automatic if you set up the table models correctly.

Hi, I've tried it but when I change the tab it doesn't update, I have to close and open the program again to see the update.

I'm trying after() but still the same

FYI:

• Get a copy of John Shipman's documentation here
  It's the original tkinter manual from New Mexico Tech.
  It's old, but there's stuff in there that you won't find in other documents.
  
• read Section 26 "Universal widget methods" read entire section, but especially w.update_idletasks() on page 103.
  
• Because you are using threads, you may have to implement some sort of semiphore.
  if not familiar with semiphores, The little book of semiphores.

Hi, thank you for you answer.

I try to access the link that Jhon Shipman provides me and it is down

I mixed up tkinter and Qt. Qt has a data model that works with QTableView to automatically update the table view when the table data changes, or the table is drawn.

This is a good idea, and just because it is not directly supported by tkinter doesn't mean you shouldn't do it.
1. Create a table class that contains the data you share amongst your pages.
2. Create a table view class that displays the data in a table.
3. Attach an instance of the table class to an instance of the table view class so it knows where to get the info needed to update the table.
4. Add table view instances to a list of views in the table class. When the table data is modified, send a message to each of the views in the list.

Your cargar_datos() method is a good start for the table class (step 1). Convert this to a class where you can set table values, get table values, save to database, retrieve from database. Setting a table value or retrieving from a database will send update messages to all the interested pages.

Menuventas looks like a good start for a table view class. Make this a subclass of tk.TableView. Add an attribute for the table data and an update message that updates the view using information from the table data. (step 2)
