NAME

       Tk::NumEntry - A numeric Entry widget with inc. & dec. Buttons

SYNOPSIS

       use Tk::NumEntry;

       $parent->NumEntry(?-option=>value, ...?);

DESCRIPTION

       Tk::NumEntry defines a widget for entering integer numbers. The widget also contains
       buttons for increment and decrement.

       Tk::NumEntry supports all the options and methods that the plain NumEntry widget provides
       (see Tk::NumEntryPlain), plus the following options

STANDARD OPTIONS

       Besides the standard options of the Entry widget NumEntry supports:

       -orient -repeatdelay -repeatinterval

       The -orient option specifies the packing order of the increment and decrement buttons.
       This option can only be set at creation time.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS

       Name:             buttons
       Class:            Buttons
       Switch:           -buttons
       Fallback:      1
           Boolean that defines if the inc and dec buttons are visible.

       Switch:           -readonly
       Fallback:      0
           If -readonly is set to a true value, then the value can only be changed by pressing
           the increment/decrement buttons. This option can only be set at creation time.

WIDGET METHODS

       Subclasses of NumEntry may override the following methods to use different widgets for the
       composition of the NumEntry. These are: NumEntryPlainWidget (usually "NumEntryPlain"),
       FireButtonWidget (usually "FireButton", IncFireButtonWidget and DecFireButtonWidget.
       FireButtonWidget is used if IncFireButtonWidget or DecFireButtonWidget are not defined.
