NAME

Tkx::Scrolled - Tkx megawidget for scrolled widgets

SYNOPSIS

        use Tkx::Scrolled;

        my $text = $mw->new_tkx_Scrolled('text');

DESCRIPTION

Tkx::Scrolled is a Tkx megawidget that simplifies that task of adding scrollbars to your widgets.

OPTIONS

The options below are for the Tkx::Scrolled megawidget. All other options are passed through to the constructor for the scrolled subwidget.

-scrollbars

Where the scrollbars should be drawn relative to the scrolled widget: n, s, e, w or a combination of them. If a position is prefixed with o the corresponding scrollbar is optional and will only be drawn if needed. The default value is se.

-tile

Use tiled (ttk) scrollbars if available. Defaults to 1.

SUBWIDGETS

scrolled

The scrolled widget.

xscrollbar

The scrollbar widget used for horizontal scrolling.

yscrollbar

The scrollbar widget used for vertical scrolling.

METHODS

None. All method calls are delgated to the scrolled subwidget. This means that you don't need to access the subwidget directly and can make existing widgets scrolled without needing to change any of the code that references them.

Method delgation to other megawidgets (e.g. Tkx::ROText) only works with Tkx version 1.06 or greater and only if the embedded megawidget's method names include the 'm_' prefix. If you can't rely on this you'll have to fall back to the $w->_kid('scrolled')->method(...) syntax.
