DESCRIPTION


The iwidgets::radiobox command creates a radio button box
    widget capable of adding, inserting, deleting, selecting, and configuring
    radiobuttons as well as obtaining the currently selected button.








METHODS


The iwidgets::radiobox command creates a new Tcl command
    whose name is pathName. This command may be used to invoke various
    operations on the widget. It has the following general form:




pathName option ?arg arg ...?




Option and the args determine the exact behavior of
    the command.


Many of the widget commands for the radiobox take as one
    argument an indicator of which radiobutton of the radiobox to operate on.
    These indicators are called indexes and allow reference and
    manipulation of radiobuttons. Radiobox indexes may be specified in any of
    the following forms:



  

  
Specifies the radiobutton numerically, where 0 corresponds to the top
      radiobutton of the radiobox.

  

  
Indicates the last radiobutton of the radiobox.

  

  
If the index doesn't satisfy one of the above forms then this form is
      used. Pattern is pattern-matched against the tag of each
      radiobutton in the radiobox, in order from top to bottom, until a matching
      entry is found. The rules of Tcl_StringMatch are used.
    

  








WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS



  

  
Adds a new radiobutton to the radiobuttond window on the bottom. The
      command takes additional options which are passed on to the radiobutton as
      construction arguments. These include the standard Tk radiobutton options.
      The tag is returned.

  

  
This command is similar to the configure command, except that it
      applies to the options for an individual radiobutton, whereas
      configureapplies to the options for the radiobox as a whole.
      Options may have any of the values accepted by the add
      widget command. If options are specified, options are modified as
      indicated in the command and the command returns an empty string. If no
      options are specified, returns a list describing the current
      options for entry index (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for
      information on the format of this list).

  

  
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
      option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the
      iwidgets::radiobox command.

  

  
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 iwidgets::radiobox command.

  

  
Deletes a specified radiobutton given an index.

  

  
Deselects a specified radiobutton given an index.

  

  
Flashes a specified radiobutton given an index.

  

  
Returns the tag of the currently selected radiobutton.

  

  
Returns the numerical index corresponding to index.

  

  
Same as the add command except that it inserts the new radiobutton
      just before the one given by index, instead of appending to the end
      of the radiobox. The option, and value arguments have the
      same interpretation as for the add widget command.

  

  
Selects a specified radiobutton given an index.
