multiple comboboxes in R using tcltk

I have been trying to define multiple combo boxes in R using the tcltk package but to no avail. I am using the below code. My inspiration was here, however I can't seem to just label them comboBox1, comboBox2, etc... so I decided to try and set their output values into a vector... but their output values don't make any sense to me... any ideas out there?

many thanks

require(tcltk)
tclRequire("BWidget")
tt <- tktoplevel()
tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="What's your favorite fruits?"))
fruit <- c("Apple","Orange","Banana","Pear")
num <- c(0:3)
num.fruit <- cbind(num, fruit)
#####1st box
comboBox <- tkwidget(tt,"ComboBox",editable=FALSE,values=num.fruit[,2])
tkgrid(comboBox)
Cbox1<- comboBox
tkfocus(tt)

######2nd box

comboBox <- tkwidget(tt,"ComboBox",editable=FALSE,values=num.fruit[,2])
tkgrid(comboBox)
Cbox2 <- comboBox
###

##preliminary wrap-ip to pass to OnOK function
pref1 <- tcl(Cbox1,"getvalue")
pref2 <- tcl(Cbox2,"getvalue")

  Prefs <- c(pref1,pref2)
######action on OK button
OnOK <- function()
{
    fruitChoice <- fruits[as.numeric(tclvalue(tcl(Prefs,"getvalue")))+1]

    tkdestroy(tt)
    msg <- paste("Good choice! ",fruitChoice,"s are delicious!",sep="")
    tkmessageBox(title="Fruit Choice",message=msg)

}
OK.but <-tkbutton(tt,text="   OK   ",command=OnOK)
tkgrid(OK.but)
tkfocus(tt)

Why don't you just use ttkcombobox?

require(tcltk)
tt <- tktoplevel()
tkwm.title(tt, "Fruits!")
tkwm.geometry(tt, "200x150+300+300") 

onOK <- function()
    {
    fav <- tclvalue(favFruit)
    worst <- tclvalue(worstFruit)

    if (fav != "Choose one")
        tkmessageBox(title="Favorite fruit", message = paste("Your favorite fruit is", fav))
    if (worst != "Choose one")
        tkmessageBox(title="Worst fruit", message = paste("The fruit you like the least is", worst))

    if (fav == "Choose one" & worst == "Choose one")
        tkmessageBox(title="Well...", message = "Select a fruit!")
    }

label1 <- tklabel(tt, text="What's your favorite fruit?")
label2 <- tklabel(tt, text="What fruit you like the least?")

fruits <- c("Choose one", "Apple", "Orange", "Banana", "Pear")
# Default selections for the two combo boxes
favFruit <- tclVar("Choose one")
worstFruit <- tclVar("Choose one")

# 1st box
combo.1 <- ttkcombobox(tt, values=fruits, textvariable=favFruit, state="readonly") 
# 2nd box
combo.2 <- ttkcombobox(tt, values=fruits, textvariable=worstFruit, state="readonly") 
# If you need to do something when the user changes selection just use
# tkbind(combo.1, "<<ComboboxSelected>>", functionname)

OK.but <- tkbutton(tt,text="   OK   ", command = onOK)

tkpack(label1, combo.1)
tkpack(label2, combo.2)
tkpack(OK.but)

tkfocus(tt)

PS: personally, I abandoned tcltk in favour of RGtk2, much more flexible in my opinion and you can design interfaces visually using Glade Interface Designer

If you don't want to get too involved with tcltk, you might find gWidgets easier to work with.

library(gWidgets)
options(guiToolkit="tcltk") ## or RGtk2 or Qt

w <- gwindow("Multiple comboboxes")
tbl <- glayout(cont=w, horizontal=FALSE)

fruit <- c("Apple","Orange","Banana","Pear")


tbl[1,1] <- "Favorite fuits"
tbl[1,2] <- (cb1 <- gcombobox(fruit, cont=tbl))

tbl[2,1] <- "Other fruit?"
tbl[2,2] <- (cb2 <- gcombobox(fruit, cont=tbl))

tbl[3,2] <- (b <- gbutton("Ok", cont=tbl))

addHandlerClicked(b, handler=function(h,...) {
  cat(sprintf("You picked %s and %s\n", svalue(cb1), svalue(cb2)))
})
