DESCRIPTION
The tixStdButonBox command creates a new window (given by
the pathName argument) and makes it into a StdButonBox
widget. Additional options, described above, may be
specified on the command line or in the option database to
configure aspects of the StdButonBox such as its cursor and
relief.
The StdButonBox widget is a group of Standard buttons for
Motif-like dialog boxes.
WIDGET COMMAND
The tixStdButonBox command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is the same as the path name of the StdButonBox's
window. This command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
pathName option ?arg arg ...?
PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as
the StdButonBox widget's path name. Option and the args
determine the exact behavior of the command. The following

tixStdButonBox(n) Tix (4.0) tixStdButonBox(n)
commands are possible for StdButonBox widgets:
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option
given by option. Option may have any of the values
accepted by the tixStdButonBox command.
pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
Query or modify the configuration options of the
widget. If no option is specified, returns a list
describing all of the available options for pathName
(see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information on the format of
this list). If option is specified with no value, then
the command returns a list describing the one named
option (this list will be identical to the
corresponding sublist of the value returned if no
option is specified). If one or more option-value
pairs are specified, then the command modifies the
given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in
this case the command returns an empty string. Option
may have any of the values accepted by the
tixStdButonBox command.
pathName invoke buttonName
Invoke the button subwidget with the name buttonName.
pathName subwidget name ?args?
When no additional arguments are given, returns the
pathname of the subwidget of the specified name.
When no additional arguments are given, the widget
command of the specified subwidget will be called with
these parameters.
BINDINGS
TixStdButonBox widgets have no default bindings. The button
subwidgets retain their default Tk bindings.
