.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
\fBtk_dialog \fIwindow title text bitmap default string string ...\fR
|
|
.BE
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
This procedure is part of the Tk script library.
|
|
Its arguments describe a dialog box:
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIwindow\fR
|
|
Name of top-level window to use for dialog. Any existing window
|
|
by this name is destroyed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fItitle\fR
|
|
Text to appear in the window manager's title bar for the dialog.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fItext\fR
|
|
Message to appear in the top portion of the dialog box.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIbitmap\fR
|
|
If non-empty, specifies a bitmap to display in the top portion of
|
|
the dialog, to the left of the text.
|
|
If this is an empty string then no bitmap is displayed in the dialog.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIdefault\fR
|
|
If this is an integer greater than or equal to zero, then it gives
|
|
the index of the button that is to be the default button for the dialog
|
|
(0 for the leftmost button, and so on).
|
|
If less than zero or an empty string then there won't be any default
|
|
button.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIstring\fR
|
|
There will be one button for each of these arguments.
|
|
Each \fIstring\fR specifies text to display in a button,
|
|
in order from left to right.
|
|
.PP
|
|
After creating a dialog box, \fBtk_dialog\fR waits for the user to
|
|
select one of the buttons either by clicking on the button with the
|
|
mouse or by typing return to invoke the default button (if any).
|
|
Then it returns the index of the selected button: 0 for the leftmost
|
|
button, 1 for the button next to it, and so on.
|
|
.PP
|
|
While waiting for the user to respond, \fBtk_dialog\fR sets a local
|
|
grab. This prevents the user from interacting with the application
|
|
in any way except to invoke the dialog box.
