.SH NAME
Tk::tixWm \- Tix's addition to the standard TK wm command.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\ \ \ \ \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmCapture\fR
.PP
\ \ \ \ \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmRelease\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBwmCapture\fR and the \fBwmRelease\fR methods change the
toplevel attribute of Tk widgets.
.SH METHODS
.IX Header "METHODS"
.ie n .IP \fR\fI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmCapture\fR 4
.el .IP \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmCapture\fR 4
.IX Item "$widget->wmCapture"
Converts the toplevel window specified by \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR into a non-toplevel
widget. Normally this command is called to convert a Toplevel widget
into a Frame widget. The newly-converted frame widget is
un-mapped from the screen. To make it appear inside its parent, you
must call a geometry manager (e.g. grid or pack) explicitly.
.ie n .IP \fR\fI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmRelease\fR 4
.el .IP \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR\->\fBwmRelease\fR 4
.IX Item "$widget->wmRelease"
Makes the non-toplevel window specified by \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR into a toplevel
widget. Normally this command is called to convert a Frame widget
into a Toplevel widget, but it can also be used on any
non-toplevel widget (e.g, label). The newly-converted toplevel window
is in a \fBwithdrawn\fR state. To make it appear on the screen, you must call
\&\fBdeiconify\fR after calling \fBwmRelease\fR.
.Sp
Any data associated with \fR\f(CI$widget\fR\fI\fR via \fBwm\fR methods (icon, protocol,
command etc.) are released, and must be re-established if window is later
re-captured.
.SH BUGS
.IX Header "BUGS"
\&\fBwmCapture\fR does not exist in the Win32 window manager code.
.PP
How these methods interact with perl/Tk's class hierarchy is not yet clear.
In particular a \fBwmRelease\fRd window will not automatically ``\fIinherit\fR''
the \fBTk::Wm\fR methods, however a \fBwmCapture\fRd window still will.
(A \fBrelease\fRd \fBLabel\fR might make a good candidate for an \fBIcon\fR.)
