<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>buttonbox</STRONG> command creates a manager widget for control-
ling buttons. The button box also supports the display and
invocation of a default button. The button box can be con-
figured either horizontally or vertically.
</PRE>
<H2>METHODS</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>buttonbox</STRONG> command creates a new Tcl command whose name
is <EM>pathName</EM>. This command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general
form:
<EM>pathName</EM> <EM>option</EM> ?<EM>arg</EM> <EM>arg</EM> ...?
<EM>Option</EM> and the <EM>arg</EM>s determine the exact behavior of the com-
mand.
Many of the widget commands for the buttonbox take as one
argument an indicator of which button of the button box to
operate on. These indicators are called <EM>indexes</EM> and allow
reference and manipulation of buttons regardless of their
current map state. buttonbox indexes may be specified in
any of the following forms:
<EM>number</EM> Specifies the button numerically, where 0
corresponds to the left/top-most button of the
button box.
<STRONG>end</STRONG> Indicates the right/bottom-most button of the
button box.
<STRONG>default</STRONG> Indicates the current default button of the but-
ton box. This is the button with the default
ring displayed.
<EM>pattern</EM> If the index doesn't satisfy one of the above
forms then this form is used. <EM>Pattern</EM> is
pattern-matched against the tag of each button
in the button box, in order from left/top to
right/left, until a matching entry is found.
The rules of <STRONG>Tcl_StringMatch</STRONG> are used.
</PRE>
<H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS</H2><PRE>
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>add</STRONG> <EM>tag</EM> <EM>args</EM>
Add a button distinguished by <EM>tag</EM> to the end of the
button box. If additional arguments are present they
specify options to be applied to the button. See <STRONG>Push-</STRONG>
<STRONG>Button</STRONG> for information on the options available.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>buttonconfigure</STRONG> <EM>index</EM> ?<EM>options</EM>?
This command is similar to the <STRONG>configure</STRONG> command,
except that it applies to the options for an individual
button, whereas <STRONG>configure</STRONG> applies to the options for
the button box as a whole. <EM>Options</EM> may have any of the
values accepted by the <STRONG>PushButton</STRONG> command. If <EM>options</EM>
are specified, options are modified as indicated in the
command and the command returns an empty string. If no
<EM>options</EM> are specified, returns a list describing the
current options for entry <EM>index</EM> (see <STRONG>Tk_ConfigureInfo</STRONG>
for information on the format of this list).
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>cget</STRONG> <EM>option</EM>
Returns the current value of the configuration option
given by <EM>option</EM>. <EM>Option</EM> may have any of the values
accepted by the <STRONG>buttonbox</STRONG> command.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>configure</STRONG> ?<EM>option</EM>? ?<EM>value</EM> <EM>option</EM> <EM>value</EM> ...?
Query or modify the configuration options of the
widget. If no <EM>option</EM> is specified, returns a list
describing all of the available options for <EM>pathName</EM>
(see <STRONG>Tk_ConfigureInfo</STRONG> for information on the format of
this list). If <EM>option</EM> is specified with no <EM>value</EM>, then
the command returns a list describing the one named
option (this list will be identical to the correspond-
ing sublist of the value returned if no <EM>option</EM> is
specified). If one or more <EM>option</EM> - <EM>value</EM> 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. <EM>Option</EM> may have any
of the values accepted by the <STRONG>buttonbox</STRONG> command.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>default</STRONG> <EM>index</EM>
Sets the default button to the button given by <EM>index</EM>.
This causes the default ring to appear arround the
specified button.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>delete</STRONG> <EM>index</EM>
Deletes the button given by <EM>index</EM> from the button box.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>hide</STRONG> <EM>index</EM>
Hides the button denoted by <EM>index</EM>. This doesn't remove
the button permanently, just inhibits its display.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>index</STRONG> <EM>index</EM>
Returns the numerical index corresponding to <EM>index</EM>.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>insert</STRONG> <EM>index</EM> <EM>tag</EM> ?<EM>option</EM> <EM>value</EM> <EM>option</EM> <EM>value</EM> ...?
Same as the <STRONG>add</STRONG> command except that it inserts the new
button just before the one given by <EM>index</EM>, instead of
appending to the end of the button box. The <EM>option</EM>,
and <EM>value</EM> arguments have the same interpretation as for
the <STRONG>add</STRONG> widget command.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>invoke</STRONG> ?<EM>index</EM>?
Invoke the command associated with a button. If no
arguments are given then the current default button is
invoked, otherwise the argument is expected to be a
button <EM>index</EM>.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>show</STRONG> <EM>index</EM>
Display a previously hidden button denoted by <EM>index</EM>.
