NAME
ttk::scrollbar - Control the viewport of a scrollable widget
SYNOPSIS
ttk::scrollbar pathName ?options...? -class -cursor -style -takefocus
WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
[-command command] A Tcl script prefix to evaluate to change the view in the widget associated with the
scrollbar. Additional arguments are appended to the value of this option, as described in SCROLLING
COMMANDS below, whenever the user requests a view change by manipulating the scrollbar.
This option typically consists of a two-element list, containing the name of a scrollable widget followed
by either xview (for horizontal scrollbars) or yview (for vertical scrollbars). [-orient orient] One of
horizontal or vertical. Specifies the orientation of the scrollbar.
DESCRIPTION
Scrollbar widgets are typically linked to an associated window that displays a document of some sort,
such as a file being edited or a drawing. A scrollbar displays a thumb in the middle portion of the
scrollbar, whose position and size provides information about the portion of the document visible in the
associated window. The thumb may be dragged by the user to control the visible region. Depending on the
theme, two or more arrow buttons may also be present; these are used to scroll the visible region in
discrete units.
WIDGET COMMAND
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the specified option; see widget(n).
pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
Modify or query widget options; see widget(n).
pathName get
Returns the scrollbar settings in the form of a list whose elements are the arguments to the most
recent set widget command.
pathName instate statespec ?script?
Test the widget state; see widget(n).
pathName set first last
This command is normally invoked by the scrollbar's associated widget from an -xscrollcommand or
-yscrollcommand callback. Specifies the visible range to be displayed. first and last are real
fractions between 0 and 1.
pathName state ?stateSpec?
Modify or query the widget state; see widget(n).
INTERNAL COMMANDS
The following widget commands are used internally by the TScrollbar widget class bindings.
pathName delta deltaX deltaY
Returns a real number indicating the fractional change in the scrollbar setting that corresponds
to a given change in thumb position. For example, if the scrollbar is horizontal, the result
indicates how much the scrollbar setting must change to move the thumb deltaX pixels to the right
(deltaY is ignored in this case). If the scrollbar is vertical, the result indicates how much the
scrollbar setting must change to move the thumb deltaY pixels down. The arguments and the result
may be zero or negative.
pathName fraction x y
Returns a real number between 0 and 1 indicating where the point given by x and y lies in the
trough area of the scrollbar, where 0.0 corresponds to the top or left of the trough and 1.0
corresponds to the bottom or right. X and y are pixel coordinates relative to the scrollbar
widget. If x and y refer to a point outside the trough, the closest point in the trough is used.
pathName identify 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 in any element of the scrollbar. X and y are pixel coordinates relative to the
scrollbar widget.
SCROLLING COMMANDS
When the user interacts with the scrollbar, for example by dragging the thumb, the scrollbar notifies the
associated widget that it must change its view. The scrollbar makes the notification by evaluating a Tcl
command generated from the scrollbar's -command option. The command may take any of the following forms.
In each case, prefix is the contents of the -command option, which usually has a form like .t yview
prefix moveto fraction
Fraction is a real number between 0 and 1. The widget should adjust its view so that the point
given by fraction appears at the beginning of the widget. If fraction is 0 it refers to the
beginning of the document. 1.0 refers to the end of the document, 0..TH 3tcl33 refers to a point
one-third of the way through the document, and so on.
prefix scroll number units
The widget should adjust its view by number units. The units are defined in whatever way makes
sense for the widget, such as characters or lines in a text widget. Number is either 1, which
means one unit should scroll off the top or left of the window, or -1, which means that one unit
should scroll off the bottom or right of the window.
prefix scroll number pages
The widget should adjust its view by number pages. It is up to the widget to define the meaning
of a page; typically it is slightly less than what fits in the window, so that there is a slight
overlap between the old and new views. Number is either 1, which means the next page should
become visible, or -1, which means that the previous page should become visible.
WIDGET STATES
The scrollbar automatically sets the disabled state bit. when the entire range is visible (range is 0.0
to 1.0), and clears it otherwise. It also sets the active and pressed state flags of individual
elements, based on the position and state of the mouse pointer.
