If this option is set to an empty string +then the background pixels will be transparent. This effect +is achieved by using the source bitmap as the mask bitmap, ignoring +any \fB\-maskdata\fR or \fB\-maskfile\fR options. +.TP +\fB\-data \fIstring\fR +. +Specifies the contents of the source bitmap as a string. +The string must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated +by the \fBbitmap\fR program). +If both the \fB\-data\fR and \fB\-file\fR options are specified, +the \fB\-data\fR option takes precedence. +.TP +\fB\-file \fIname\fR +. +\fIname\fR gives the name of a file whose contents define the +source bitmap. +The file must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated +by the \fBbitmap\fR program). +.TP +\fB\-foreground \fIcolor\fR +. +Specifies a foreground color for the image in any of the standard +ways accepted by Tk. +.TP +\fB\-maskdata \fIstring\fR +. +Specifies the contents of the mask as a string. +The string must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated +by the \fBbitmap\fR program). +If both the \fB\-maskdata\fR and \fB\-maskfile\fR options are specified, +the \fB\-maskdata\fR option takes precedence. +.TP +\fB\-maskfile \fIname\fR +. +\fIname\fR gives the name of a file whose contents define the +mask. +The file must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated +by the \fBbitmap\fR program). +.SH "IMAGE COMMAND" +.PP +When a bitmap image is created, Tk also creates a new command +whose name is the same as the image. +This command may be used to invoke various operations +on the image. +It has the following general form: +.CS +\fIimageName option \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR? +.CE +\fIOption\fR and the \fIarg\fRs +determine the exact behavior of the command. The following +commands are possible for bitmap images: +.TP +\fIimageName \fBcget\fR \fIoption\fR +. +Returns the current value of the configuration option given +by \fIoption\fR. +\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the +\fBimage create\fR \fBbitmap\fR command. +.TP +\fIimageName \fBconfigure\fR ?\fIoption\fR? ?\fIvalue option value ...\fR? +. +Query or modify the configuration options for the image. +If no \fIoption\fR is specified, returns a list describing all of +the available options for \fIimageName\fR (see \fBTk_ConfigureInfo\fR for +information on the format of this list). If \fIoption\fR is specified +with no \fIvalue\fR, 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 \fIoption\fR is specified). If +one or more \fIoption\-value\fR pairs are specified, then the command +modifies the given option(s) to have the given value(s); in +this case the command returns an empty string. +\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the +\fBimage create\fR \fBbitmap\fR command. +.SH KEYWORDS +bitmap, image +'\" Local Variables: +'\" mode: nroff +'\" End: |
