DESCRIPTION
A ttk::panedwindow widget displays a number of subwindows, stacked
either vertically or horizontally. The user may adjust the relative
sizes of the subwindows by dragging the sash between panes.
STANDARD OPTIONS
-class -cursor -takefocus
-style
See the ttk_widget manual entry for details on the standard options.
WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
Command-Line Name:-orient
Database Name: orient
Database Class: Orient
Specifies the orientation of the window. If vertical, subpanes
are stacked top-to-bottom; if horizontal, subpanes are stacked
left-to-right.
Command-Line Name:-width
Database Name: width
Database Class: Width
If present and greater than zero, specifies the desired width of
the widget in pixels. Otherwise, the requested width is deter-
mined by the width of the managed windows.
Command-Line Name:-height
Database Name: height
Database Class: Height
If present and greater than zero, specifies the desired height
of the widget in pixels. Otherwise, the requested height is
determined by the height of the managed windows.
PANE OPTIONS
The following options may be specified for each pane:
Command-Line Name:-weight
Database Name: weight
Database Class: Weight
An integer specifying the relative stretchability of the pane.
When the paned window is resized, the extra space is added or
subtracted to each pane proportionally to its -weight.
WIDGET COMMAND
Supports the standard configure, cget, state, and instate commands; see
ttk::widget(n) for details. Additional commands:
pathname add subwindow options...
Adds a new pane to the window. See PANE OPTIONS for the list of
available options.
pathname forget pane
Removes the specified subpane from the widget. pane is either
an integer index or the name of a managed subwindow.
pathname identify component x y
Returns the name of the element under the point given by x and
y, or the empty string if no component is present at that loca-
tion. If component is omitted, it defaults to sash. The fol-
lowing subcommands are supported:
pathname identify element x y
Returns the name of the element at the specified loca-
tion.
pathname identify sash x y
Returns the index of the sash at the specified location.
pathname insert pos subwindow options...
Inserts a pane at the specified position. pos is either the
string end, an integer index, or the name of a managed subwin-
dow. If subwindow is already managed by the paned window, moves
it to the specified position. See PANE OPTIONS for the list of
available options.
pathname pane pane -option ?value ?-option value...
Query or modify the options of the specified pane, where pane is
either an integer index or the name of a managed subwindow. If
no -option is specified, returns a dictionary of the pane option
values. If one -option is specified, returns the value of that
option. Otherwise, sets the -options to the corresponding val-
ues.
pathname panes
Returns the list of all windows managed by the widget, in the
index order of their associated panes.
pathname sashpos index ?newpos?
If newpos is specified, sets the position of sash number index.
May adjust the positions of adjacent sashes to ensure that posi-
tions are monotonically increasing. Sash positions are further
constrained to be between 0 and the total size of the widget.
Returns the new position of sash number index.
VIRTUAL EVENTS
The panedwindow widget generates an <<EnteredChild>> virtual event on
LeaveNotify/NotifyInferior events, because Tk does not execute binding
scripts for <Leave> events when the pointer crosses from a parent to a
child. The panedwindow widget needs to know when that happens.
