DESCRIPTION
The spintime command creates a set of spinners for use in time value entry. The set includes an hour, minute, and second spinner widget.
METHODS
The spintime 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. The following commands are possible for spintime widgets:
WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the spintime command.
pathName clear
Delete the contents of all spinner components.
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 spintime command.
pathName delete component first ?last?
Delete one or more characters of the specified com_ponent, where component can be hour, minute, or second. First is the index of the first character to delete, and last is the index of the character just after the last one to delete.
