-relief

Database name: relief

Database class: Relief

Specifies the 3D effect desired for the widget. Acceptable values are raised, sunken, flat, ridge, solid, and groove. The value indicates how the interior of the widget should appear relative to its exterior; for example, raised means the interior of the widget should appear to protrude from the screen, relative to the exterior of the widget.

-takefocus

Database name: takeFocus

Database class: TakeFocus

Determines whether the window accepts the focus during keyboard traversal. Either 0, 1, a command prefix (to which the widget path is appended, and which should return 0 or 1), or the empty string. See options(n) in the Tk reference manual for the full description.

-width

Database name: width

Database class: Width

Specifies the width of a widget.

-container

Database name: container

Database class: Container

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 -use 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 configure widget command. Note that -borderwidth, -padx and -pady are ignored when configured as a container since a container has no border. Defaults to false.

-relief

Database name: relief

Database class: Relief

One of the standard Tk border styles: flat, groove, raised, ridge, solid, or sunken. Defaults to flat.

pathName configure ?option? ?value option value …?

Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. 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. If option is specified with no value, then the command returns a list describing the named option: the elements of the list are the option name, database name, database class, default value, and current value. If no option is specified, returns a list describing all of the available options for pathName.

pathName cget option

Returns the current value of the configuration option given by option.

pathName identify element x y

Returns the name of the element under the point given by x and y, or an empty string if the point does not lie within any element. x and y are pixel coordinates relative to the widget. Some widgets accept other identify subcommands.

pathName instate statespec ?script?

Test the widget’s state. If script is not specified, returns 1 if the widget state matches statespec and 0 otherwise. If script is specified, equivalent to

if{[pathNameinstatestateSpec]}script

pathName state ?stateSpec?

Modify or inquire widget state. If stateSpec is present, sets the widget state: for each flag in stateSpec, sets the corresponding flag or clears it if prefixed by an exclamation point. Returns a new state spec indicating which flags were changed:

setchanges[pathNamestatespec]
pathNamestate$changes

will restore pathName to the original state. If stateSpec is not specified, returns a list of the currently-enabled state flags.
