NAME

PanedWindow - creates and arranges one or more panes into which windows can be mapped

SYNOPSIS

PanedWindow pathName ?option value...?

DESCRIPTION

PanedWindow is a widget that creates one or more panes into which windows can be mapped, and also creates a pane control sash between adjacent panes. The panes are arranged in a vertical or horizontal sequence. Each sash can be used to adjust the size of the adjacent panes.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS

"Read-only" options must be supplied as arguments to the PanedWindow command. The values of these options cannot be changed later by calling the configure widget command.

-activator (read-only)
By default, the control sash is either a button or a line depending upon the underlying operating system. This sash may be explicitly set using this option. If set to line then the sash consists of just a dividing line. Otherwise if set to button then it constists of a knob that can be dragged.
-pad (read-only)
Specifies additional space between the button of the sash and children.
-side (read-only)
Specifies the side of the sash, which implies the layout: top or bottom (horizontal layout), left or right (vertical layout).
-weights (read-only)
Specifies how the weights specified when adding panes should be used. Must be extra or available. When using extra, only extra space is devided among the diffferent panes relative to their weight. When using available, all space is devided among the diffferent panes relative to their weight. Default value for weights is extra.
-width (read-only)
Specifies the width of the button of the sash. This option is ignored if the activator is set to line.

WIDGET COMMAND

pathName add ?option value...?
This command add a new pane. The new pane is placed below the previous pane for vertical layout or at right for horizontal layout. This command returns a frame where user can place its widget. Valid options are:
-minsize
Specifies the minimum size requested for the pane. See the grid command for more information.
-weight
Specifies the relative weight for apportioning any extra spaces among panes. See the grid command for more information.
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by option. Argument option may have any of the values accepted by the creation command PanedWindow.
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. 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. Argument option may have any of the values accepted by the creation command PanedWindow. Read-only options cannot be modified.
pathName getframe index
Returns the pathname of the indexth added pane.
