This procedure is part of the Tk script library.
|
||
|
|
Its arguments describe a dialog box:
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
<DL>
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M5"><I>window</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
Name of top-level window to use for dialog. Any existing window
|
||
|
|
by this name is destroyed.
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M6"><I>title</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
Text to appear in the window manager's title bar for the dialog.
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M7"><I>text</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
Message to appear in the top portion of the dialog box.
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M8"><I>bitmap</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M9"><I>default</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
<P><DT><A NAME="M10"><I>string</I></A><DD>
|
||
|
|
There will be one button for each of these arguments.
|
||
|
|
Each <I>string</I> specifies text to display in a button,
|
||
|
|
in order from left to right.
|
||
|
|
<P></DL>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
After creating a dialog box, <B>tk_dialog</B> 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.
|
||
|
|
If the dialog's window is destroyed before the user selects one
|
||
|
|
of the buttons, then -1 is returned.
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
While waiting for the user to respond, <B>tk_dialog</B> sets a local
|
||
|
|
grab. This prevents the user from interacting with the application
|
||
|
|
in any way except to invoke the dialog box.
