DESCRIPTION

38       The  tixFileSelectDialog  command  creates  a  new window (given by the
39       pathName argument) and makes it into a FileSelectDialog  widget.  Addi‐
40       tional  options,  described above, may be specified on the command line
41       or in the option database to configure aspects of the  FileSelectDialog
42       such as its cursor and relief.
43
44       The  FileSelectDialog widget provides an convenient method for the user
45       to select files. The FileSelectBox is similar to the standard Motif(TM)
46       file-selection box.
47

WIDGET COMMANDS

49       The tixFileSelectDialog command creates a new Tcl command whose name is
50       the same as the path name of the FileSelectDialog's window.  This  com‐
51       mand may be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has the
52       following general form:
53              pathName option ?arg arg ...?
54       PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as  the  FileSe‐
55       lectDialog  widget's path name. Option and the args determine the exact
56       behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for FileS‐
57       electDialog widgets:
58
59       pathName cget option
60              Returns  the  current value of the configuration option given by
61              option. Option may have any of the values accepted by  the  tix‐
62              FileSelectDialog command.
63
64       pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
65              Query  or modify the configuration options of the widget.  If no
66              option is specified, returns a list describing all of the avail‐
67              able  options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information
68              on the format of this list).  If option  is  specified  with  no
69              value,  then the command returns a list describing the one named
70              option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist
71              of  the  value  returned  if no option is specified).  If one or
72              more option-value pairs are specified, then the command modifies
73              the  given  widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in this
74              case the command returns an empty string.  Option may  have  any
75              of the values accepted by the tixFileSelectDialog command.
76
77       pathName popdown
78              Withdraws the FileSelectDialog from the screen.
79
80       pathName popup
81              Pops up the FileSelectDialog on the screen.
82
83       pathName subwidget name ?args?
84              When  no options are given, this command returns the pathname of
85              the subwidget of the specified name.
86
87              When options are given, the widget command of the specified sub‐
88              widget will be called with these options.
