ARGUMENTS

63       One of the symbolic  constants  TK_ANCHOR_N,  TK_ANCHOR_NE,  etc.   See
64       Tk_GetAnchorFromObj(3).   A  rectangular  region from which a parcel is
65       allocated.  Extra padding (in pixels) to add uniformly to each side  of
66       a  region.  Extra padding (in pixels) to add to the bottom of a region.
67       Specifies a rectangular region.  The height  in  pixels  of  a  region.
68       Used  to store error messages.  Extra padding (in pixels) to add to the
69       left side of a region.  String value contains a  symbolic  name  to  be
70       converted  to  an  enumerated value or bitmask.  Internal rep may be be
71       modified to cache corresponding value.  Extra padding  to  add  on  the
72       inside  of  a  region.   A rectangular region, allocated from a cavity.
73       One   of   the   standard   Tk   relief   options    (TK_RELIEF_RAISED,
74       TK_RELIEF_SUNKEN,  etc.).   See Tk_GetReliefFromObj.  Extra padding (in
75       pixles) to add to the right side of a region.   One  of  TTK_SIDE_LEFT,
76       TTK_SIDE_TOP, TTK_SIDE_RIGHT, or TTK_SIDE_BOTTOM.  A bitmask containing
77       one or more of the bits TTK_STICK_W (west, or left), TTK_STICK_E (east,
78       or  right, TTK_STICK_N (north, or top), and TTK_STICK_S (south, or bot‐
79       tom).     TTK_FILL_X    is     defined     as     a     synonym     for
80       (TTK_STICK_W|TTK_STICK_E),     TTK_FILL_Y     is    a    synonym    for
81       (TTK_STICK_N|TTK_STICK_S), and   TTK_FILL_BOTH  and  TTK_STICK_ALL  are
82       synonyms for (TTK_FILL_X|TTK_FILL_Y).  See also: grid(n).  Window whose
83       screen geometry determines the conversion between  absolute  units  and
84       pixels.   Extra padding at the top of a region.  The width in pixels of
85       a region.  X coordinate of upper-left corner of region.   Y  coordinate
86       of upper-left corner of region.

BOXES

90       The  Ttk_Box  structure  represents  a  rectangular region of a window:
91       typedef struct  {
92           int x;
93           int y;
94           int width;
95           int height; } Ttk_Box; All coordinates are relative to the window.
96
97       Ttk_MakeBox is a convenience routine that contsructs a  Ttk_Box  struc‐
98       ture  representing  a  region width pixels wide, height pixels tall, at
99       the specified x, y coordinates.
100
101       Ttk_PadBox returns a new  box  located  inside  the  specified  parcel,
102       shrunken  according  to the left, top, right, and bottom margins speci‐
103       fied by padding.
104
105       Ttk_ExpandBox is the inverse of Ttk_PadBox: it returns a new  box  sur‐
106       rounding  the  specified  parcel, expanded  according to the left, top,
107       right, and bottom margins specified by padding.
108
109       Ttk_PackBox allocates a parcel width by height pixels wide on the spec‐
110       ified side of the cavity, and shrinks the cavity accordingly.
111
112       Ttk_StickBox  places  a  box with the requested width and height inside
113       the parcel according to the sticky bits.
114
115       Ttk_PlaceBox combines Ttk_PackBox and Ttk_StickBox: it allocates a par‐
116       cel  on the specified side of the cavity, places a box of the requested
117       size inside the parcel according to sticky, and shrinks the cavity.
118
119       Ttk_AnchorBox places a box with the requested width and  height  inside
120       the parcel according to the specified anchor option.
121
122       Ttk_BoxContains  tests if the specified x, y coordinate lies within the
123       rectangular region box.
124

PADDDING

126       The Ttk_Padding structure is used to represent borders,  internal  pad‐
127       ding, and external margins: typedef struct {
128           short left;
129           short top;
130           short right;
131           short bottom; } Ttk_Padding;
132
133       Ttk_MakePadding  is a convenience routine that contsructs a Ttk_Padding
134       structure with the specified left, top, right, and bottom components.
135
136       Ttk_UniformPadding constructs a Ttk_Padding structure with  all  compo‐
137       nents equal to the specified border.
138
139       Ttk_AddPadding  adds  two  Ttk_Paddings together and returns a combined
140       padding containing the sum of the individual padding components.
141
142       Ttk_RelievePadding adds an extra 2 pixels of padding to padding accord‐
143       ing  to  the specified relief.  If relief is TK_RELIEF_SUNKEN, adds two
144       pixels at the top and left so the inner region is shifted down  and  to
145       the left.  If it is TK_RELIEF_RAISED, adds two pixels at the bottom and
146       right so the inner region is shifted up and to the  right.   Otherwise,
147       adds  1 pixel on all sides.  This is typically used in element geometry
148       procedures to simulate a "pressed-in" look for pushbuttons.

CONVERSION ROUTINES

152       Ttk_GetPaddingFromObj converts the string in objPtr  to  a  Ttk_Padding
153       structure.   The  string  representation is a list of up to four length
154       specifications "left top right bottom".  If fewer  than  four  elements
155       are  specified, bottom defaults to top, right defaults to left, and top
156       defaults to left.  See Tk_GetPixelsFromObj(3) for the syntax of  length
157       specifications.
158
159       Ttk_GetBorderFromObj  is  the same as Ttk_GetPaddingFromObj except that
160       the lengths are specified as integers (i.e., resolution-dependant  val‐
161       ues like 3m are not allowed).
162
163       Ttk_GetStickyFromObj converts the string in objPtr to a sticky bitmask.
164       The string contains zero or more of the characters n, s, e, or w.
