WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS

       [-height height]   Specifies   the   desired   height   for   the   window,   in   pixels.
       [-scrollbar scrollbar]  Specifies  the  display  policy  of  the scrollbars. The following
       values are recognized:

              auto ?+x? ?-x? ?+y? ?-y?
                     When -scrollbar is set to "auto", the scrollbars are shown only when needed.
                     Additional modifiers can be used to force a scrollbar to be shown or hidden.
                     For example, "auto -y" means the horizontal scrollbar should be  shown  when
                     needed  but  the vertical scrollbar should always be hidden; "auto +x" means
                     the vertical scrollbar should  be  shown  when  needed  but  the  horizontal
                     scrollbar should always be shown, and so on.

DESCRIPTION

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

WIDGET COMMANDS

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

       pathName subwidget  name ?args?
              When  no  additional  arguments are given, returns the pathname of the subwidget of
              the specified name.

              When no additional arguments  are  given,  the  widget  command  of  the  specified
              subwidget will be called with these parameters.
