The default is Close. </UL> <P> <pre> Name: <B>grab</B> Class: <B>Grab</B> Command-Line Switch: <B>-grab</B> </pre> <UL> Specifies the grab level, <B>local</B> or <B>global</B>, to be obtained before bringing up the popup watch. The default is global. For more information concerning grab levels, consult the documentation for Tk's <B>grab</B> command. </UL> <P> <pre> Name: <B>icon</B> Class: <B>Icon</B> Command-Line Switch: <B>-icon</B> </pre> <UL> Specifies the watch icon image to be used in the timeentry. This image must have been created previously with the <B>image create</B> command. Should one not be provided, then one will be generated, pixmap if possible, bitmap otherwise. </UL> <P> <pre> Name: <B>state</B> Class: <B>State</B> Command-Line Switch: <B>-state</B> </pre> <UL> Specifies the state of the widget which may be <B>disabled</B> or <B>normal</B>. A disabled state prevents selection of the timefield or time icon button. </UL> <P> </pre><HR> </pre><H2>DESCRIPTION</H2> <P> The <B>timeentry</B> command creates a time entry field with a popup watch by combining the timefield and watch widgets together. This allows a user to enter the time via the keyboard or by using the mouse and selecting the watch icon which brings up a popup watch. </pre> </pre><H2>METHODS</H2> <P> The <B>timeentry</B> command creates a new Tcl command whose name is <I>pathName</I>. This command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has the following general form: <pre> <I>pathName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>? </pre> <I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for timeentry widgets: </pre><H2>INHERITED METHODS</H2> <P> <table cellpadding=5> <td valign=top> <B>get</B><br> </td> <td valign=top> <B>isvalid</B><br> </td> <td valign=top> <B>show</B><br> </td> <td valign=top> </td> </table> <P> See the "timefield" manual entry for details on the associated methods. </pre><H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS</H2> <DL> <DT> <I>pathName <B>cget</B> <I>option</I> </I></B> <DD> Returns the current value of the configuration option given by <I>option</I>. <I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>timeentry</B> command. </DL> <DL> <DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value option value ...</I>? </I></B> <DD> Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list describing all of the available options for <I>pathName</I> (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B> for information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I> is specified with no <I>value</I>, 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 <I>option</I> is specified). If one or more <I>option-value</I> 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. <I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>timeentry</B> command. </DL> </pre><H2>COMPONENTS</H2> <P> <pre> Name: <B>label</B> Class: <B>Label</B> </pre> <UL> The label component provides a label component to used to identify the time.
