Tcl/Tk Gridplus2 How to change date format

I am playing with tcl gridplus date control, and would like to create date selector entry.

It should have default value of today, and European date format: dd.mm.yyyy

I tried:

source ../bin/common/gridplus.kit

package requ开发者_StackOverflow中文版ire Tk
package require gridplus

namespace import gridplus::*

# Create date delector
gridplus date .dt -selecttoday 1 -dateformat "eu" {
    {DT .dt}
}
pack .dt
 

As a result I got date selector that: - do not show default value; - Show date in US format mm/dd/yyyy

Any ideas how to fix it?

A little bit of experimentation shows that if you include the command:

gridplus set -dateformat eu

that you should end up with the correct date format.

There currently isn't a way to set a default value for a "date" item. It is neccessary to use a gpset command...

gpset .dt,dt [clock format [clock seconds] -format "%d.%m.%Y"]

...after creating the "date" ietm (assuming "eu" date format).

I am adding options to specify default values in the next (2.7) release - Due in the next week or two.
