Question

I’m creating labels in Tcl Tk, but their text is not selectable (for copy-paste). How do I make is selectable?

I crate the labels using:

set n 0
foreach t $list_of_labels {
    incrr n
    set lbl2 [label .prop_menu.main_frame.val_$n    -text $t]
    grid $lbl2 ...
}

Answer 1

I solved it by using read only entries, I replaced the creation of the label with:

set lbl2 [entry .prop_menu.main_frame.val_$n -relief flat]
$lbl2 insert 0 $t
$lbl2 configure -state readonly

And was able to create entries that act like labels but are selectable.
