'\" .TH Tk_ConfigureWindow 3tk 4.0 Tk "Tk Library Procedures" .\" The -*- nroff -*- definitions below are for supplemental macros used .\" in Tcl/Tk manual entries. .\" .\" .AP type name in/out ?indent? .\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure. .\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out", .\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg, .\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be .\" needed; use .AS below instead) .\" .\" .AS ?type? ?name? .\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and .\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed .\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used. .\" .\" .BS .\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be .\" enclosed in one large box. .\" .\" .BE .\" End of box enclosure. .\" .\" .CS .\" Begin code excerpt. .\" .\" .CE .\" End code excerpt. .\" .\" .VS ?version? ?br? .\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts .\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording .\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be .\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument .\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar. .\" .\" .VE .\" End of vertical sidebar. .\" .\" .DS .\" Begin an indented unfilled display. .\" .\" .DE .\" End of indented unfilled display. .\" .\" .SO ?manpage? .\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The manpage .\" argument defines where to look up the standard options; if .\" omitted, defaults to "options". The options follow on successive .\" lines, in three columns separated by tabs. .\" .\" .SE .\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget. .\" .\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass .\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the .\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives .\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives .\" the option's class in the option database. .\" .\" .UL arg1 arg2 .\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally. .\" .\" .QW arg1 ?arg2? .\" Print arg1 in quotes, then arg2 normally (for trailing punctuation). .\" .\" .PQ arg1 ?arg2? .\" Print an open parenthesis, arg1 in quotes, then arg2 normally .\" (for trailing punctuation) and then a closing parenthesis. .\" .\" # Set up traps and other miscellaneous stuff for Tcl/Tk man pages. .if t .wh -1.3i ^B .nr ^l \n(.l .ad b .\" # Start an argument description .de AP .ie !"\\$4"" .TP \\$4 .el \{\ . ie !"\\$2"" .TP \\n()Cu . el .TP 15 .\} .ta \\n()Au \\n()Bu .ie !"\\$3"" \{\ \&\\$1 \\fI\\$2\\fP (\\$3) .\".b .\} .el \{\ .br .ie !"\\$2"" \{\ \&\\$1 \\fI\\$2\\fP .\} .el \{\ \&\\fI\\$1\\fP .\} .\} .. .\" # define tabbing values for .AP .de AS .nr )A 10n .if !"\\$1"" .nr )A \\w'\\$1'u+3n .nr )B \\n()Au+15n .\" .if !"\\$2"" .nr )B \\w'\\$2'u+\\n()Au+3n .nr )C \\n()Bu+\\w'(in/out)'u+2n .. .AS Tcl_Interp Tcl_CreateInterp in/out .\" # BS - start boxed text .\" # ^y = starting y location .\" # ^b = 1 .de BS .br .mk ^y .nr ^b 1u .if n .nf .if n .ti 0 .if n \l'\\n(.lu\(ul' .if n .fi .. .\" # BE - end boxed text (draw box now) .de BE .nf .ti 0 .mk ^t .ie n \l'\\n(^lu\(ul' .el \{\ .\" Draw four-sided box normally, but don't draw top of .\" box if the box started on an earlier page. .ie !\\n(^b-1 \{\ \h'-1.5n'\L'|\\n(^yu-1v'\l'\\n(^lu+3n\(ul'\L'\\n(^tu+1v-\\n(^yu'\l'|0u-1.5n\(ul' .\} .el \}\ \h'-1.5n'\L'|\\n(^yu-1v'\h'\\n(^lu+3n'\L'\\n(^tu+1v-\\n(^yu'\l'|0u-1.5n\(ul' .\} .\} .fi .br .nr ^b 0 .. .\" # VS - start vertical sidebar .\" # ^Y = starting y location .\" # ^v = 1 (for troff;

WARNING: cannot necessarily be deleted immediately, as for Xlib calls. See note below. .AP Colormap colormap in New colormap to use for \fItkwin\fR. .AP Tk_Cursor cursor in New cursor to use for \fItkwin\fR. If \fBNone\fR is specified, then \fItkwin\fR will not have its own cursor; it will use the cursor of its parent. .BE .SH DESCRIPTION .PP These procedures are analogous to the X library procedures with similar names, such as \fBXConfigureWindow\fR. Each one of the above procedures calls the corresponding X procedure and also saves the configuration information in Tk's local structure for the window. This allows the information to be retrieved quickly by the application (using macros such as \fBTk_X\fR and \fBTk_Height\fR) without having to contact the X server. In addition, if no X window has actually been created for \fItkwin\fR yet, these procedures do not issue X operations or cause event handlers to be invoked; they save the information in Tk's local structure for the window; when the window is created later, the saved information will be used to configure the window. .PP See the X library documentation for details on what these procedures do and how they use their arguments. .PP In the procedures \fBTk_ConfigureWindow\fR, \fBTk_MoveWindow\fR, \fBTk_ResizeWindow\fR, \fBTk_MoveResizeWindow\fR, and \fBTk_SetWindowBorderWidth\fR, if \fItkwin\fR is an internal window then event handlers interested in configure events are invoked immediately, before the procedure returns. If \fItkwin\fR is a top-level window then the event handlers will be invoked later, after X has seen the request and returned an event for it. .PP Applications using Tk should never call procedures like \fBXConfigureWindow\fR directly; they should always use the corresponding Tk procedures. .PP The size and location of a window should only be modified by the appropriate geometry manager for that window and never by a window itself (but see \fBTk_MoveToplevelWindow\fR for moving a top-level window). .PP You may not use \fBTk_ConfigureWindow\fR to change the stacking order of a window (\fIvalueMask\fR may not contain the \fBCWSibling\fR or \fBCWStackMode\fR bits). To change the stacking order, use the procedure \fBTk_RestackWindow\fR. .PP The procedure \fBTk_SetWindowColormap\fR will automatically add \fItkwin\fR to the \fBTK_COLORMAP_WINDOWS\fR property of its nearest top-level ancestor if the new colormap is different from that of \fItkwin\fR's parent and \fItkwin\fR is not already in the \fBTK_COLORMAP_WINDOWS\fR property. .SH BUGS .PP \fBTk_SetWindowBackgroundPixmap\fR and \fBTk_SetWindowBorderPixmap\fR differ slightly from their Xlib counterparts in that the \fIpixmap\fR argument may not necessarily be deleted immediately after calling one of these procedures. This is because \fItkwin\fR's window may not exist yet at the time of the call, in which case \fIpixmap\fR is merely saved and used later when \fItkwin\fR's window is actually created. If you wish to delete \fIpixmap\fR, then call \fBTk_MakeWindowExist\fR first to be sure that \fItkwin\fR's window exists and \fIpixmap\fR has been passed to the X server. .PP A similar problem occurs for the \fIcursor\fR argument passed to \fBTk_DefineCursor\fR. The solution is the same as for pixmaps above: call \fBTk_MakeWindowExist\fR before freeing the cursor. .SH "SEE ALSO" Tk_MoveToplevelWindow, Tk_RestackWindow .SH KEYWORDS attributes, border, color, configure, height, pixel, pixmap, width, window, x, y
