Gtk2::Widget Gtk2::Entry Gapp::Gtk2::TimeEntry
Gapp::Gtk2::TimeEntry displays and edits a time in HH::MM PM format with some convienence functions.
Gapp::Gtk2::TimeEntry
Use the up and down keys to modify the invidual components of the value, and the left and right keys to navigate between them. Pressing up or down while the entire contents of the entry is selected (such as when you focus-in) modifies the value in 15 minute increments.
The time is stored in HH:MM:SS format (but displayed in HH:MM PM format). If you enter a value 24:00:00 or higher, it will loop back around.
You can also type a time into the entry in various formats, which will be parsed and then displayed in the entry in HH:MM PM format. Here are some examples of things you can enter into the widget and the resulting internal and display values.
INPUT VALUE DISPLAY 1 01:00:00 01:00 AM 10 10:00:00 10:00 AM 120 01:20:00 01:20 AM 1:20 01:20:00 01:20 AM 120pm 13:20:00 01:20 PM 01:20 PM 13:20:00 01:20 PM 30:20:00 04:20:00 04:20 AM
$te = Gapp::Gtk2::TimeEntry->new (key=>value,...)

my $te = Gapp::Gtk2::TimeEntry->new (value => '16:00:00');
$te->get_selected_component
Returns the name of the currently selected component. Valid values are hours, minutes, meridiem, and all. An emptry string will be returned if the selection bounds contains less than 1 individual component, or more than 1 component but less than all of them.
$te->set_selected_component($component)

$te->set_now

value (string, default '')
