.SH DESCRIPTION

.PP

The \fBselectiondialog\fR command creates a selection box similar to

the OSF/Motif standard selection

dialog composite widget.  The selectiondialog is derived from the

Dialog class and is composed of a selectionbox with commands

to manipulate the dialog buttons.

.SH "METHODS"

.PP

The \fBselectiondialog\fR command creates a new Tcl command whose

name is \fIpathName\fR.  This

command may be used to invoke various

operations on the widget.  It has the following general form:

.DS C

\fIpathName option \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?

.DE

\fIOption\fR and the \fIarg\fRs

determine the exact behavior of the command.  The following

commands are possible for selectiondialog widgets:

.SH "WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS"

.TP

\fIpathName \fBcget\fR \fIoption\fR

Returns the current value of the configuration option given

by \fIoption\fR.

\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBselectiondialog\fR

command.

.TP

\fIpathName\fR \fBconfigure\fR ?\fIoption\fR? ?\fIvalue option value ...\fR?

Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.

If no \fIoption\fR is specified, returns a list describing all of

the available options for \fIpathName\fR (see \fBTk_ConfigureInfo\fR for

information on the format of this list).  If \fIoption\fR is specified

with no \fIvalue\fR, 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 \fIoption\fR is specified).  If

one or more \fIoption\-value\fR 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.

\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBselectiondialog\fR

command.
