VtPulldown(VTCL)


VtPulldown -- create Pulldown Menu, return widget name

Syntax

VtPulldown widgetName [options]

Description

Creates a Pulldown Menu. (Label resources can be used to title the Menu.)

Options


-cascadeButton (G)
This flag can be used only with VtGet(VTCL). It returns the widget name of the pulldown's cascadeButton. Use this widget to set options such as -font.

-help (C)
Describes this Pulldown to the MenuBar as containing the Help Menu pane. A simpler alternative is to use either the VtMenuBar(VTCL) -helpMenuItemList option or the VxMenu(VTCL) convenience routine.

-radioBehavior boolean (CS)
Specify that the Pulldown should act like a radiobox.

-tearoff (CSG)
Specifies that this Pulldown Menu can be torn off the MenuBar.

For example, to make a Cascade Menu within a pulldown:

   ...
   set menubar [VtMenuBar $form.menubar]
   

set pm [VtPulldown $menubar.phonemenu -label "Phone"]

set check [VtPulldown $pm.check -label "Check"] set check_yes [VtPushButton $check.yes -label "Yes"] set check_no [VtPushButton $check.no -label "No"] ...

This creates a Menu (Phone) containing the button check, which cascades to another Menu that contains the buttons Yes and No.
