'Tkinter vs Linux (ubuntu/Mint) <KP_Enter> not enabled by default
On Windows the events of the 'Return' key by default are already linked to the <KP_Enter> key. For example selecting a combobox item, or closing a mesagebox
Here I use Linux Mint x64 Cinnamon 20.2, based on Ubuntu. And the <KP_Enter> key is not linked to the events of the 'Return' key. Is this a bug? Or I need to do some configuration.
example if I try to select an item from the combobox with Enter, it works. But if I press <KP_Enter> (numeric enter) nothing happens
If this is a bug, where can I report it?
Solution 1:[1]
Key Pad Enter (KP_Enter) does not work on Ubuntu. Let me know if you find an alternative.
This is the archived list of predefined events and it is listed. Again, if there is an alternative let us know.
Solution 2:[2]
from my knowledge of free pascal programming
in windows : Enter(or return key) is mapped to one key VK_RETURN
in Linux : Enter is mapped to 2 keys
- for keypad(numeric) to XK_KP_Enter
- for left return XK_RETURN
