Update frame on tab switch in ttk.Notebook
You can bind to the <Visibility> or <Map> event of the frame. For example:
class MyFrame(ttk.Frame): def __init__(self, master, name): ttk.Frame.__init__(self, master) self.name = name self.pack() self.bind("<Visibility>", self.on_visibility) def on_visibility(self, event): self.update()
Instead of
def tab_switch(): # see question...nb.bind("<Button-1>", tab_switch)you can do the following trick
b.bind("<<NotebookTabChanged>>", lambda event: event.widget.winfo_children()[event.widget.index("current")].update())This also removes the need to call
f1.update() # Initial update of first displayed tabHowever, the solution proposed by @BryanOakley might work better when you have different types of frames where you cannot be sure if an .update() method exists.
