tixScrolledWindow - Create and manipulate Tix ScrolledWindow widgets
tixScrolledWindow pathName ?options?
- -anchor, anchor, Anchor
- -background or -bg, background, Background
- -borderWidth
- -cursor, cursor, Cursor
- -relief, relief, Relief
- Command-Line Name: -height
- Database Name: height
- Database Class: Height
- Specifies the desired height for the window, in pixels.
- Command-Line Name: -scrollbar
- Database Name: scrollbar
- Database Class: Scrollbar
- Specifies the display policy of the scrollbars. The following
values are recognized:
- auto ?+x? ?-x? ?+y? ?-y?
-
When -scrollbar is set to "auto", the scrollbars are
shown only when needed. Additional modifiers can be used to force a
scrollbar to be shown or hidden. For example, "auto -y" means
the horizontal scrollbar should be shown when needed but the vertical
scrollbar should always be hidden; "auto +x" means the vertical
scrollbar should be shown when needed but the horizontal scrollbar
should always be shown, and so on.
- both
-
Both scrollbars are shown
- none
-
The scrollbars are never shown.
- x
-
Only the horizontal scrollbar is shown;
- y
-
Only the vertical scrollbar is shown.
- Command-Line Name: -width
- Database Name: width
- Database Class: Width
- Specifies the desired width for the window, in pixels.
- Command-Line Name: -xscrollincrement
- Database Name: xScrollIncrement
- Database Class: ScrollIncrement
- Specifies by how much the window should be scrolled in the horizontal
direction when the user presses the arrows in the horizontal
scrollbar. In Pixels.
- Command-Line Name: -yscrollincrement
- Database Name: yScrollIncrement
- Database Class: ScrollIncrement
- Specifies by how much the window should be scrolled in the vertical
direction when the user presses the arrows in the horizontal
scrollbar. In pixels.
Name: hsb
Class: Scrollbar
-
The horizontal scrollbar subwidget.
Name: window
Class: Frame
-
The frame subwidget which is scrolled by the ScrolledWindow widget.
Name: vsb
Class: Scrollbar
-
The vertical scrollbar subwidget.
The tixScrolledWindow command creates a new window (given by the
pathName argument) and makes it into a ScrolledWindow widget.
Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command
line or in the option database to configure aspects of the
ScrolledWindow widget such as its cursor and relief.
To create widgets inside a ScrolledWindow widget, one must create the
new widgets relative to the window subwidget and manage them
inside the window subwidget. An error will be generated if one
tries to create widgets as immediate children of the ScrolledWindow.
For example: the following is correct code, which creates new widgets
inside the window subwidget:
tixScrolledWindow .w; pack .w
set f [.w subwidget window]
button $f.b -text hi -width 40 -height 40
pack $f.b
The following example code is incorrect because it tries to
create immediate children of the ScrolledWindow .w:
tixScrolledWindow .w; pack .w
button .w.b -text hi -width 40 -height 40
pack .w.b
The tixScrolledWindow command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is the same as the path name of the ScrolledWindow widget's window. This
command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
-
pathName option ?arg arg ...?
PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as
the ScrolledWindow widget's path name. Option and the args
determine the exact behavior of the command. The following
commands are possible for ScrolledWindow widgets:
- pathName cget option
-
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the
tixScrolledWindow command.
- pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
-
Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. If
no option is specified, returns a list describing all of the
available options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for
information on the format of this list). If option is specified
with no value, then the command returns a list describing the
one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding
sublist of the value returned if no option is specified). If
one or more option-value pairs are specified, then the command
modifies the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in
this case the command returns an empty string. Option may have
any of the values accepted by the tixScrolledWindow command.
- pathName subwidget name ?args?
-
When no additional arguments are given, returns the pathname of the
subwidget of the specified name.
When no additional arguments are given, the widget command of the
specified subwidget will be called with these parameters.
