SUBWIDGETS

       Name:          btns
       Class:         TixStdButtonBox

              The StdButtonBox subwidget at the bottom of  FileSelectDialog.  It  contains  the  "OK",  "Filter,
              "Cancel" and "Help" buttons.

DESCRIPTION

       The tixFileSelectDialog command creates a new window (given by the pathName argument) and makes it into a
       FileSelectDialog  widget. Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command line or in
       the option database to configure aspects of the FileSelectDialog such as its cursor and relief.

       The FileSelectDialog widget provides an convenient method for the user to select files. The FileSelectBox
       is similar to the standard Motif(TM) file-selection box.

WIDGET COMMANDS

       The tixFileSelectDialog command creates a new Tcl command whose name is the same as the path name of  the
       FileSelectDialog's  window.  This  command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has
       the following general form:
              pathName option ?arg arg ...?
       PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as the FileSelectDialog widget's path name. Option
       and the args determine the exact behavior of  the  command.  The  following  commands  are  possible  for
       FileSelectDialog widgets:

       pathName cget option
              Returns  the current value of the configuration option given by option. Option may have any of the
              values accepted by the tixFileSelectDialog command.

       pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
              Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.  If no option  is  specified,  returns  a
              list describing all of the available options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information on
              the  format  of this list).  If option is specified with no value, then the command returns a list
              describing the one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist  of  the
              value  returned if no option is specified).  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.   Option  may  have  any  of  the  values  accepted  by  the
              tixFileSelectDialog command.

       pathName popdown
              Withdraws the FileSelectDialog from the screen.

       pathName popup
              Pops up the FileSelectDialog on the screen.

       pathName subwidget name ?args?
              When no options are given, this command returns the pathname of the  subwidget  of  the  specified
              name.

              When  options  are  given, the widget command of the specified subwidget will be called with these
              options.
