Scrolled(3pm)         User Contributed Perl Documentation         Scrolled(3pm)

NAME
       Tk::Scrolled - Create a widget with attached scrollbar(s)

SYNOPSIS
           $whatever = $parent->Scrolled(Whatever ?,-scrollbars=>where?
       ?,...?);

DESCRIPTION
       To stop a flood of ScrlWhatever widgets Perl/Tk introcuded the special
       constructor Scrolled.  Scrolled creates a widget of the given Class
       Whatever with attached scrollbar(s).

OPTIONS
       All options beside -scrollbars explained below are passed to the
       Whatever widget constructor.

       -scrollbars
           Expects  as  argument  the  position  where the scrollbars should be
           created:  w, e or n, s or a combination of them.  If the one or both
           positions are prefixed with o the scrollbar will  only  show  up  if
           there is a 'real' need to scroll.

ADVERTISED SUBWIDGETS
       See "Subwidget" in Tk::mega how to use advertised widgets.

       scrolled
           the scrolled widget

       widget
           same  as  scrolled  above.   widget  is the kind of widget passed to
           scrolled as first argument in all lowercase.

       xscrollbar
           the Scrollbar widget used for horizontal scrolling (if it exists)

       yscrollbar
           the Scrollbar widget used for vertical scrolling (if it exists)

       corner
           a frame in the corner between the vertical and horizontal scrolbar

BUGS
       If a widget does not support -{x,y}scrollcommand options, Scrolled  does
       not complain if the specified widget class does not support them.  E.g.,

           $parent->Scrolled('Button', ...)

       One does not get an error message or warning when one tries to configure
       scrollbars after the widget construction:

           $ascrolled->configure(-scrollbars => 'e');
