DESCRIPTION
The timeentry command creates a time entry field with a
popup watch by combining the timefield and watch widgets together.
This allows a user to enter the time via the keyboard or by using
the mouse and selecting the watch icon which brings up a popup
watch.
METHODS
The timeentry command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is pathName. This command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
pathName option ?arg arg ...?
Option and the args determine the exact behavior of
the command. The following commands are possible for timeentry
widgets:
INHERITED METHODS
See the "timefield" manual entry for details on the associated
methods.
WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS
- pathName cget option
- Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
option. Option may have any of the values accepted by
the timeentry 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
timeentry command.
