Each of +the buttons in the message window is identified by a unique symbolic +name (see the \fB\-type\fR options). After the message window is +popped up, \fBtk_messageBox\fR waits for the user to select one of the +buttons. Then it returns the symbolic name of the selected button. +.PP +The following option-value pairs are supported: +.TP +\fB\-default\fR \fIname\fR +. +\fIName\fR gives the symbolic name of the default button for +this message window ( +.QW ok , +.QW cancel , +and so on). See \fB\-type\fR +for a list of the symbolic names. If this option is not specified, +the first button in the dialog will be made the default. +.TP +\fB\-detail\fR \fIstring\fR +. +Specifies an auxiliary message to the main message given by the +\fB\-message\fR option. The message detail will be presented beneath the main +message and, where supported by the OS, in a less emphasized font than the +main message. +.TP +\fB\-icon\fR \fIiconImage\fR +. +Specifies an icon to display. \fIIconImage\fR must be one of the +following: \fBerror\fR, \fBinfo\fR, \fBquestion\fR or +\fBwarning\fR. If this option is not specified, then the info icon will be +displayed. +.TP +\fB\-message\fR \fIstring\fR +. +Specifies the message to display in this message box. The +default value is an empty string. +.TP +\fB\-parent\fR \fIwindow\fR +. +Makes \fIwindow\fR the logical parent of the message box. The message +box is displayed on top of its parent window. +.TP +\fB\-title\fR \fItitleString\fR +. +Specifies a string to display as the title of the message box. This option +is ignored on Mac OS X, where platform guidelines forbid the use of a title +on this kind of dialog. +.TP +\fB\-type\fR \fIpredefinedType\fR +. +Arranges for a predefined set of buttons to be displayed. The +following values are possible for \fIpredefinedType\fR: +.RS +.TP 18 +\fBabortretryignore\fR +. +Displays three buttons whose symbolic names are \fBabort\fR, +\fBretry\fR and \fBignore\fR. +.TP 18 +\fBok\fR +. +Displays one button whose symbolic name is \fBok\fR. +.TP 18 +\fBokcancel\fR +. +Displays two buttons whose symbolic names are \fBok\fR and \fBcancel\fR. +.TP 18 +\fBretrycancel\fR +. +Displays two buttons whose symbolic names are \fBretry\fR and \fBcancel\fR. +.TP 18 +\fByesno\fR +. +Displays two buttons whose symbolic names are \fByes\fR and \fBno\fR. +.TP 18 +\fByesnocancel\fR +. +Displays three buttons whose symbolic names are \fByes\fR, \fBno\fR +and \fBcancel\fR. +.RE +.PP +.SH EXAMPLE +.PP +.CS +set answer [\fBtk_messageBox\fR \-message "Really quit?" \e + \-icon question \-type yesno \e + \-detail "Select \e"Yes\e" to make the application exit"] +switch \-\- $answer { + yes exit + no {\fBtk_messageBox\fR \-message "I know you like this application!" \e + \-type ok} +} +.CE +.SH KEYWORDS +message box +'\" Local Variables: +'\" mode: nroff +'\" End: |
