NAME

       tixScrolledWindow - Create and manipulate Tix ScrolledWindow widgets

SYNOPSIS

       tixScrolledWindow pathName ?options?  -anchor   -background    -cursor -relief	-borderWidth

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
       [-height height]  Specifies  the  desired  height  for  the  window, in pixels.	[-scrollbar 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  hori-
		     zontal 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.
       [-width width]  Specifies the desired width for the window, in pixels.  [-xscrollincrement xScrollIncrement] Specifies by how much the win-
       dow should be scrolled  in  the	horizontal  direction  when  the  user	presses  the  arrows  in  the  horizontal  scrollbar.  In  Pixels.
       [-yscrollincrement yScrollIncrement]  Specifies	by  how much the window should be scrolled in the vertical direction when the user presses

	      The horizontal scrollbar subwidget.

       Name:	      window
       Class:	      Frame

	      The frame subwidget which is scrolled by the ScrolledWindow widget.

DESCRIPTION

       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.

CREATING WIDGETS INSIDE A SCROLLEDWINDOW WIDGET

       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

WIDGET COMMANDS

       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.
