       Name:           listbox
       Class:          listbox

              The listbox component is the listbox widget.  See the "listbox" widget manual entry for details on
              the listbox component item.

       Name:           horizsb
       Class:          Scrollbar

              The  horizsb  component is the horizontal scroll bar.  See the "scrollbar" widget manual entry for
              details on the horizsb component item.

       Name:           vertsb
       Class:          Scrollbar

              The vertsb component is the vertical scroll bar.  See the  "scrollbar"  widget  manual  entry  for
              details on the vertsb component item.

       The  iwidgets::scrolledlistbox  command  creates  a  scrolled  listbox  with additional options to manage
       horizontal and vertical scrollbars.  This includes options to control which scrollbars are displayed  and
       the method, i.e. statically or dynamically.

       scrolledlistbox, listbox, widget

Tk                                                                                  iwidgets::scrolledlistbox(1)

       The iwidgets::scrolledlistbox 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: pathNameoption
       ?argarg...?  Option and the args determine the exact behavior of the command.

       Many of the widget commands for a scrolledlistbox take as one argument an indicator of which entry of the
       list box to operate on.  These indicators are called indexes and may be specified in any of the following
       forms:

       number      Specifies the element as a numerical index, where 0 corresponds to the first element  in  the
                   listbox.

       active      Indicates  the  element that has the location cursor.  This element will be displayed with an
                   underline when the listbox has the keyboard focus, and it  is  specified  with  the  activate
                   widget command.

       anchor      Indicates  the  anchor point for the selection, which is set with the selectionanchor widget
                   command.

       end         Indicates the end of the listbox.  For some commands this means just after the last  element;
                   for other commands it means the last element.

       @x,y        Indicates  the  element  that covers the point in the listbox window specified by x and y (in
                   pixel coordinates).  If no element covers that point, then the closest element to that  point
                   is used.

       pattern     If  the  index  doesn't  satisfy  one  of the above forms then this form is used.  Pattern is
                   pattern-matched against the items in the list box, in  order  from  the  top  down,  until  a
                   matching entry is found.  The rules of Tcl_StringMatch are used.

       The following widget commands are possible for scrolledlistbox widgets:

iwidgets::scrolledlistboxpathName ?options?

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

       pathNameclear
              Clears the listbox of all items.

       pathNameconfigure ?option? ?valueoptionvalue...?
              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::scrolledlistbox command.

       pathNamegetcurselection
              Returns the contents of the listbox element indicated by the current selection indexes.  Short cut
              version of get and curselection command combination.

       pathNamejustifydirection
              Justifies  the  list  contents via teh scroll bars in one of four directions: left, right, top, or
              bottom.

       pathNameselecteditemcount
              Returns the number of items currently selected in the list.

       pathNamesortorder
              Sort the current list in any of the forms accepted by Tcl's lsort command.   Also  accepts  either
              ascending or descending order.

       Name:           dblClickCommand
       Class:          Command
       Command-Line Switch:           -dblclickcommand

              Specifies  a Tcl command procedure which is called when an item is double clicked.  Typically this
              occurs when mouse button 1 is double clicked over an item.  Selection policy does not matter.

       Name:           height
       Class:          Height
       Command-Line Switch:           -height

              Specifies the height of the scrolled list box as an entire unit.  The value may  be  specified  in
              any  of  the  forms  acceptable to Tk_GetPixels.  Any additional space needed to display the other
              components such as labels, margins, and scrollbars force the listbox to be compressed.  A value of
              zero along with the same value for the width causes the value given for the visibleitems option to
              be applied which administers geometry constraints in a different manner.  The  default  height  is
              zero.

       Name:           hscrollMode
       Class:          ScrollMode
       Command-Line Switch:           -hscrollmode

              Specifies  the the display mode to be used for the horizontal scrollbar: static,dynamic, or none.
              In static mode, the scroll bar is displayed at all times.  Dynamic mode displays the scroll bar as
              required, and none disables the scroll bar display.  The default is static.

       Name:           sbWidth
       Class:          Width
       Command-Line Switch:           -sbwidth

              Specifies the width of the scrollbar in any of the forms acceptable to Tk_GetPixels.  The  default
              width is 15 pixels..

       Name:           scrollMargin
       Class:          Margin
       Command-Line Switch:           -scrollmargin

              Specifies  the  distance  between  the  listbox  and  scrollbar  in any of the forms acceptable to
              Tk_GetPixels.  The default is 3 pixels.

       Name:           selectionCommand
       Class:          Command
       Command-Line Switch:           -selectioncommand

              Specifies a Tcl command procedure which is called when an item is selected.  Selection policy does
              not matter.

       Name:           state
       Class:          State
       Command-Line Switch:           -state

              Specifies one of two states for the listbox: normal or disabled.  If the listbox is disabled  then
              selection is ignored.  The default is normal.

       Name:           textBackground
       Class:          Background
       Command-Line Switch -textbackground

              Specifies  the background color for the listbox.  This allows the background within the listbox to
              be different from the normal background color.

       Name:           textFont
       Class:          Font
       Command-Line Switch:           -textfont

              Specifies the font to be used for text in the listbox.  This allows for the font  associated  with
              text internal to the scrolled listbox to be different than the font for labels.

       Name:           visibleitems
       Class:          VisibleItems
       Command-Line Switch:           -visibleitems

              Specifies  the  widthxheight  in  characters  and  lines  for  the  listbox.   This option is only
              administered if the width and height options are both set to zero, otherwise they take precedence.
              The default value is 20x10.  With  the  visibleitems  option  engaged,  geometry  constraints  are
              maintained  only  on  the  listbox.  The size of the other components such as labels, margins, and
              scroll bars, are additive and independent, effecting the overall size of the  scrolled  list  box.
              In  contrast,  should  the  width and height options have non zero values, they are applied to the
              scrolled list box as a whole.  The listbox is compressed or  expanded  to  maintain  the  geometry
              constraints.

       Name:           vscrollMode
       Class:          ScrollMode
       Command-Line Switch:           -vscrollmode

              Specifies  the  the  display mode to be used for the vertical scrollbar: static,dynamic, or none.
              In static mode, the scroll bar is displayed at all times.  Dynamic mode displays the scroll bar as
              required, and none disables the scroll bar display.  The default is static.

       Name:           width
       Class:          Width
       Command-Line Switch:           -width

              Specifies the width of the scrolled list box as an entire unit.  The value may be specified in any
              of the forms acceptable to Tk_GetPixels.   Any  additional  space  needed  to  display  the  other
              components such as labels, margins, and scrollbars force the listbox to be compressed.  A value of
              zero  along  with the same value for the height causes the value given for the visibleitems option
              to be applied which administers geometry constraints in a different manner.  The default width  is
              zero.
