<p>Pmw.PanedWidget() -
frame subdivided into several resizable panes
</p>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Inherits</h3></dt><dd>
<a href="MegaWidget.html">Pmw.MegaWidget</a><br>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Description</h3></dt><dd>
<p>
A paned widget is a container megawidget which manages a number of
resizable frames, known as panes. Each pane may act as the container for
other widgets. The user may interactively resize the panes by
dragging a small rectangle (the handle) or the line between the
panes (the separator). The panes may be arranged horizontally or
vertically. Each pane may have maximum and minimum limits of its
size.</p>
<p></p>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Options</h3></dt><dd>
Options for this megawidget and its base
classes are described below.<p></p>
<a name=option.command></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>command
</strong></dt><dd>
Specifies a function to be called whenever the size of any of the
panes changes. The function is called with a single argument,
being a list of the sizes of the panes, in order. For <strong>vertical</strong>
orientation, the size is the height of the panes. For
<strong>horizontal</strong> orientation, the size is the width of the panes. The default is <strong>None</strong>.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=option.handlesize></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>handlesize
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the size in pixels of the square handle which appears on
the lines separating the panes. The default is <strong>8</strong>.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=option.orient></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>orient
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the orientation of the paned widget. This may be
<strong>'horizontal'</strong> or <strong>'vertical'</strong>. If <strong>'vertical'</strong>, the panes are
stacked above and below each other, otherwise the panes are laid
out side by side. The default is <strong>'vertical'</strong>.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=option.separatorrelief></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>separatorrelief
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the relief of the lines separating the panes. The default is <strong>'sunken'</strong>.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=option.separatorthickness></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>separatorthickness
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the thickness of the lines separating the panes. The default is <strong>2</strong>.</p>
</dd></dl>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Pane options</h3></dt><dd>
<p>
Each pane has the following options. These may be set when
creating or configuring a pane. The value of each option may
be an integer, which specifies a pane size in pixels, or a
real number between 0.0 and 1.0, which specifies a pane size
proportional to the size of the entire paned widget.</p>
<dl><dt><strong>size</strong></dt><dd>Specifies the initial size of the pane. The default is <strong>0</strong>.<p></p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>min</strong></dt><dd>Specifies the minimum size of the pane. The default is <strong>0</strong>.<p></p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>max</strong></dt><dd>Specifies the maximum size of the pane. The default is a
very large number.<p></p>
<p> </p>
</dd></dl>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Components</h3></dt><dd>
Components created by this megawidget and its base
classes are described below.<p></p>
<a name=component.hull></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>hull
</strong></dt><dd>
This acts as the body for the entire megawidget. Other components
are created as children of the hull to further specialise this
class. By default, this component is a Tkinter.Frame.</p>
</dd></dl>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Dynamic components</h3></dt><dd>
<p>
Frame, separator and handle components are created dynamically
by the <code>add()</code> and <code>insert()</code> methods. The components are of type
Tkinter.Frame and are created with component groups of
<strong>Frame</strong>, <strong>Separator</strong> and <strong>Handle</strong> respectively.</p>
<p> </p>
</dd>
<a name=methods></a>
<dt> <h3>Methods</h3></dt><dd>
Only methods specific to this megawidget are described below.
For a description of its inherited methods, see the
manual for its base class
<strong><a href="MegaWidget.html#methods">Pmw.MegaWidget</a></strong>.
<p></p>
<a name=method.add></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>add</strong>(<em>name</em>, **<em>kw</em>)</dt><dd>
Add a pane to the end of the paned widget as a component named
<em>name</em>. This is equivalent to calling <code>insert()</code> with <em>before</em>
set to the current number of panes. The method returns the <em>name</em>
component widget.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.configurepane></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>configurepane</strong>(<em>name</em>, **<em>kw</em>)</dt><dd>
Configure the pane specified by <em>name</em>, where <em>name</em> is either an
integer, specifying the index of the pane, or a string, specifying
the name of the pane. The keyword arguments specify the new
values for the options for the pane. These options are described
in the <strong>Pane options</strong> section.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.delete></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>delete</strong>(<em>name</em>)</dt><dd>
Delete the pane specified by <em>name</em>, where <em>name</em> is either an
integer, specifying the index of the pane, or a string, specifying
the name of the pane.</p>
<p> If the pane deleted was not the only pane in the paned widget,
also delete the separator and handle components named
<strong>separator</strong>-<em>n</em> and <strong>handle</strong>-<em>n</em>, where <em>n</em> is the number of
panes remaining.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.insert></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>insert</strong>(<em>name</em>, <em>before</em> = <strong>0</strong>, **<em>kw</em>)</dt><dd>
Add a pane to the paned widget as a component named <em>name</em>. The
pane is added just before the pane specified by <em>before</em>, where
<em>before</em> may be either an integer, specifying the index of the
pane, or a string, specifying the name of the pane. The keyword
arguments specify the initial values for the options for the new
pane. These options are described in the <strong>Pane options</strong> section.
To add a pane to the end of the paned widget, use <code>add()</code>.</p>
<p> The new pane is created as a Tkinter.Frame component named <em>name</em>.
If this is not the only pane, a separator and handle are also
created as components named <strong>separator</strong>-<em>n</em> and <strong>handle</strong>-<em>n</em>,
where <em>n</em> is one less than the number of panes. The method
returns the <em>name</em> component widget.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.move></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>move</strong>(<em>name</em>, <em>newPos</em>, <em>newPosOffset</em> = <strong>0</strong>)</dt><dd>
Move the pane specified by <em>name</em> to the new position specified by
<em>newPos</em>. The first two arguments may be either an integer,
specifying the index of the pane, or a string, specifying the name
of the pane. If <em>newPosOffset</em> is specified, it is added to the
<em>newPos</em> index. For example, to move a horizontal pane one pane
to the left, specify the name or index of the pane for both <em>name</em>
and <em>newPos</em> and specify <strong>-1</strong> for <em>newPosOffset</em>.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.pane></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>pane</strong>(<em>name</em>)</dt><dd>
Return the Tkinter.Frame pane widget for the pane specified by
<em>name</em>, where <em>name</em> is either an integer, specifying the index of
the pane, or a string, specifying the name of the pane.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.panes></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>panes</strong>()</dt><dd>
Return a list of the names of the panes, in display order.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.setnaturalsize></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>setnaturalsize</strong>()</dt><dd>
If oriented horizontally, set the width of the paned widget to the
sum of the requested widths of all panes and set the height to the
maximum requested height of all panes.</p>
<p> If oriented vertically, set the height of the paned widget to the
sum of the requested heights of all panes and set the width to the
maximum requested width of all panes.</p>
</dd></dl>
<a name=method.updatelayout></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>updatelayout</strong>()</dt><dd>
Recalculate size and position of panes. This method must be
called after adding or deleting one or more panes. However it
does not need to be called when panes are first added to a newly
created paned widget, before it has been displayed.</p>
</dd></dl>
