What OS and what tcl/tk patch version? (IDLE Help => About IDLE will show this).  3.5 only gets security patches.  On Windows, it came with a slightly older version of tk.  That might possibly be a problem.

One cannot place widgets 'in a treeview', so you are actually placing the entries or comboboxes *over* a cell of the treeview.  You are placing them, I presume, *in* the toplevel or frame also containing the treeview.  Try passing that container, instead of the treeview, as the parent.  Does the that fix your problem?  If so, please close as 'not a bug'.

Your example is too short.  It cannot be run as is.  And I do not understand the problem from your description.  If the treeview parent is not the problem, then your example is likely too long, as the treeview stuff is likely irrelevant noise.  Please repost or attach a minimal, complete and verifiable example as described in
