       and subwidgets of its super-class.

STANDARD OPTIONS

DESCRIPTION

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

       The LabelEntry widget packages an entry widget and a label into one mega widget. It can be used  be  used
       to  simplify  the  creation of "entry-form" type of interface. In this kind of interface, one must create
       many entry widgets with label widgets next to them and describe the use of each of the entry widgets.

WIDGET COMMANDS

       The tixLabelEntry command creates a new Tcl command whose name is the  same  as  the  path  name  of  the
       LabelEntry'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 LabelEntry widget's path name.  Option  and
       the  args determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for LabelEntry
       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 tixLabelEntry 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  tixLabelEntry
              command.

       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.
