|
buttons and a child site for use in derived classes. The buttons |
|

|
operations on the widget. It has the following general form: |
|
<pre> |
|
<I>pathName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>? |
|
</pre> |
|
<I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s |

|
<DL> |
|
<DT> <I>pathName <B>cget</B> <I>option</I> |
|
</I></B> |
|
<DD> Returns the current value of the configuration option given |
|
by <I>option</I>. |
|
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>dialog</B> |
|
command. |
|
</DL> |
|
<DL> |
|
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value option value ...</I>? |
|
</I></B> |
|
<DD> Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. |
|
If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list describing all of |
|
the available options for <I>pathName</I> (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B> for |
|
information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I> is specified |
|
with no <I>value</I>, 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 <I>option</I> is specified). If |
|
one or more <I>option-value</I> 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. |
|
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>dialog</B> |
|
command. |
