Most of the information +manipulated by these methods pertains to the application as a whole, +or to a screen or display, rather than to a particular window. + +To view the current settings, the common usage is: +\begin{verbatim} +import Tix +root = Tix.Tk() +print root.tix_configure() +\end{verbatim} +\end{classdesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_configure}{\optional{cnf,} **kw} +Query or modify the configuration options of the Tix application +context. If no option is specified, returns a dictionary all of the +available options. If option is specified with no value, then the +method 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 method modifies the given option(s) to have the +given value(s); in this case the method returns an empty string. +Option may be any of the configuration options. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_cget}{option} +Returns the current value of the configuration option given by +\var{option}. Option may be any of the configuration options. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_getbitmap}{name} +Locates a bitmap file of the name \code{name.xpm} or \code{name} in +one of the bitmap directories (see the \method{tix_addbitmapdir()} +method). By using \method{tix_getbitmap()}, you can avoid hard +coding the pathnames of the bitmap files in your application. When +successful, it returns the complete pathname of the bitmap file, +prefixed with the character \samp{@}. The returned value can be used to +configure the \code{bitmap} option of the Tk and Tix widgets. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_addbitmapdir}{directory} +Tix maintains a list of directories under which the +\method{tix_getimage()} and \method{tix_getbitmap()} methods will +search for image files. The standard bitmap directory is +\file{\$TIX_LIBRARY/bitmaps}. The \method{tix_addbitmapdir()} method +adds \var{directory} into this list. By using this method, the image +files of an applications can also be located using the +\method{tix_getimage()} or \method{tix_getbitmap()} method. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_filedialog}{\optional{dlgclass}} +Returns the file selection dialog that may be shared among different +calls from this application. This method will create a file selection +dialog widget when it is called the first time. This dialog will be +returned by all subsequent calls to \method{tix_filedialog()}. An +optional dlgclass parameter can be passed as a string to specified +what type of file selection dialog widget is desired. Possible +options are \code{tix}, \code{FileSelectDialog} or +\code{tixExFileSelectDialog}. +\end{methoddesc} + + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_getimage}{self, name} +Locates an image file of the name \file{name.xpm}, \file{name.xbm} or +\file{name.ppm} in one of the bitmap directories (see the +\method{tix_addbitmapdir()} method above). If more than one file with +the same name (but different extensions) exist, then the image type is +chosen according to the depth of the X display: xbm images are chosen +on monochrome displays and color images are chosen on color +displays. By using \method{tix_getimage()}, you can avoid hard coding +the pathnames of the image files in your application. When successful, +this method returns the name of the newly created image, which can be +used to configure the \code{image} option of the Tk and Tix widgets. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_option_get}{name} +Gets the options manitained by the Tix scheme mechanism. +\end{methoddesc} + +\begin{methoddesc}{tix_resetoptions}{newScheme, newFontSet\optional{, + newScmPrio}} +Resets the scheme and fontset of the Tix application to +\var{newScheme} and \var{newFontSet}, respectively. This affects only +those widgets created after this call. Therefore, it is best to call +the resetoptions method before the creation of any widgets in a Tix +application. + +The optional parameter \var{newScmPrio} can be given to reset the +priority level of the Tk options set by the Tix schemes. + +Because of the way Tk handles the X option database, after Tix has +been has imported and inited, it is not possible to reset the color +schemes and font sets using the \method{tix_config()} method. +Instead, the \method{tix_resetoptions()} method must be used. +\end{methoddesc} + \input{libturtle} |
