<DT>Database Name: <B>background</B>
|

<DT>Database Class: <B>Background</B>
|
||||
<DD>This option is the same as the standard <B>background</B> option
|
||||
except that its value may also be specified as an empty string.
|
||||
In this case, the widget will display no background or border, and
|
||||
no colors will be consumed from its colormap for its background
|
||||
and border.
|

<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M7">-class</A></B>
|

<DT>Database Name: <B>class</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Class</B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies a class for the window.
|
||||
This class will be used when querying the option database for
|
||||
the window's other options, and it will also be used later for
|
||||
other purposes such as bindings.
|
||||
The <B>class</B> option may not be changed with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M8">-colormap</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Name: <B>colormap</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Colormap</B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies a colormap to use for the window.
|
||||
The value may be either <B>new</B>, in which case a new colormap is
|
||||
created for the window and its children, or the name of another
|
||||
window (which must be on the same screen and have the same visual
|
||||
as <I>pathName</I>), in which case the new window will use the colormap
|
||||
from the specified window.
|
||||
If the <B>colormap</B> option is not specified, the new window
|
||||
uses the default colormap of its screen.
|
||||
This option may not be changed with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M9">-container</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Name: <B>container</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Container</B>
|
||||
<DD>The value must be a boolean. If true, it means that this window will
|
||||
be used as a container in which some other application will be embedded
|
||||
(for example, a Tk toplevel can be embedded using the <B>-use</B> option).
|
||||
The window will support the appropriate window manager protocols for
|
||||
things like geometry requests. The window should not have any
|
||||
children of its own in this application.
|
||||
This option may not be changed with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M10">-height</A></B>
|

<DT>Database Name: <B>height</B>
|

<DT>Database Class: <B>Height</B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies the desired height for the window in any of the forms
|
||||
acceptable to <B><A HREF="../TclLib/GetPixels.htm">Tk_GetPixels</A></B>.
|
||||
If this option is less than or equal to zero then the window will
|
||||
not request any size at all.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M11">-menu</A></B>
|

<DT>Database Name: <B><A HREF="../TclCmd/menu.htm">menu</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B><A HREF="../TclCmd/menu.htm">Menu</A></B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies a menu widget to be used as a menubar. On the Macintosh, the
|
||||
menubar will be displayed accross the top of the main monitor. On
|
||||
Microsoft Windows and all UNIX platforms, the menu will appear accross
|
||||
the toplevel window as part of the window dressing maintained by the
|
||||
window manager.
|
||||

|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B><A HREF="../TkLib/CrtChannel.htm"></A></B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies the screen on which to place the new window.
|
||||
Any valid screen name may be used, even one associated with a
|
||||
different display.
|
||||
Defaults to the same screen as its parent.
|
||||
This option is special in that it may not be specified via the option
|
||||
database, and it may not be modified with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M13">-use</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Name: <B>use</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Use</B>
|
||||
<DD>This option is used for embedding. If the value isn't an empty string,
|
||||
it must be the the window identifier of a container window, specified as
|
||||
a hexadecimal string like the ones returned by the <B><A HREF="../TclCmd/winfo.htm">winfo id</A></B>
|
||||
command. The toplevel widget will be created as a child of the given
|
||||
container instead of the root window for the screen. If the container
|
||||
window is in a Tk application, it must be a frame or toplevel widget for
|
||||
which the <B>-container</B> option was specified.
|
||||
This option may not be changed with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M14">-visual</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Name: <B>visual</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Visual</B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies visual information for the new window in any of the
|
||||
forms accepted by <B><A HREF="../TclLib/GetVisual.htm">Tk_GetVisual</A></B>.
|
||||
If this option is not specified, the new window will use the default
|
||||
visual for its screen.
|
||||
The <B>visual</B> option may not be modified with the <B>configure</B>
|
||||
widget command.
|
||||
<P><DT>Command-Line Name: <B><A NAME="M15">-width</A></B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Name: <B>width</B>
|
||||
<DT>Database Class: <B>Width</B>
|
||||
<DD>Specifies the desired width for the window in any of the forms
|
||||
acceptable to <B><A HREF="../TclLib/GetPixels.htm">Tk_GetPixels</A></B>.
|
||||
If this option is less than or equal to zero then the window will
|
||||
not request any size at all.
|

</DL>
|
||||
<H3><A NAME="M16">DESCRIPTION</A></H3>
|
||||
The <B>toplevel</B> command creates a new toplevel widget (given
|
||||
by the <I>pathName</I> argument). Additional
|
||||
options, described above, may be specified on the command line
|
||||
or in the option database
|
||||
to configure aspects of the toplevel such as its background color
|
||||
and relief. The <B>toplevel</B> command returns the
|
||||
path name of the new window.
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
A toplevel is similar to a frame except that it is created as a
|
||||
top-level window: its X parent is the root window of a screen
|
||||
rather than the logical parent from its path name. The primary
|
||||
purpose of a toplevel is to serve as a container for dialog boxes
|
||||
and other collections of widgets. The only visible features
|
||||
of a toplevel are its background color and an optional 3-D border
|
||||
to make the toplevel appear raised or sunken.
|
||||
|
||||
<H3><A NAME="M17">WIDGET COMMAND</A></H3>
|
||||
The <B>toplevel</B> command creates a new Tcl command whose
|
||||
name is the same as the path name of the toplevel's window. This
|
||||
command may be used to invoke various
|
||||
operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
|
||||
<PRE><I>pathName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>?</PRE>
|
||||
<I>PathName</I> is the name of the command, which is the same as
|
||||
the toplevel widget's path name. <I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s
|
||||
determine the exact behavior of the command. The following
|
||||
commands are possible for toplevel widgets:
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<DL>
|
||||
<P><DT><A NAME="M18"><I>pathName </I><B>cget</B> <I>option</I></A><DD>
|
||||
Returns the current value of the configuration option given
|
||||
by <I>option</I>.
|
||||
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>toplevel</B>
|
||||
command.
|
||||
<P><DT><A NAME="M19"><I>pathName </I><B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value option value ...</I>?</A><DD>
|
||||
Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.
|
||||
If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list describing all of
|
||||
the available options for <I>pathName</I> (see <B><A HREF="../TclLib/ConfigWidg.htm">Tk_ConfigureInfo</A></B> for
|
||||
information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I> is specified
|
||||
with no <I>value</I>, 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 <I>option</I> is specified). If
|
||||
one or more <I>option-value</I> 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.
|
||||
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>toplevel</B>
|
||||
command.
|
||||
|
||||
<P></DL>
|
||||
<H3><A NAME="M20">BINDINGS</A></H3>
|
||||
When a new toplevel is created, it has no default event bindings:
|
||||
toplevels are not intended to be interactive.
