NAME

ttk::sizegrip − Bottom-right corner resize widget

SYNOPSIS

ttk::sizegrip pathName ?options? ___________________________

DESCRIPTION

A ttk::sizegrip widget (also known as a grow box) allows the user to resize the containing toplevel window by pressing and dragging the grip.

STANDARD OPTIONS

	−class	−cursor	−state
	−style	−takefocus

See the ttk_widget manual entry for details on the standard options.

WIDGET COMMAND

Sizegrip widgets support the standard cget, configure, identify, instate, and state methods. No other widget methods are used.

PLATFORM-SPECIFIC NOTES

On Mac OSX, toplevel windows automatically include a built-in size grip by default. Adding a ttk::sizegrip there is harmless, since the built-in grip will just mask the widget.

EXAMPLES

Using pack:

pack [ttk::frame $top.statusbar] −side bottom −fill x
pack [ttk::sizegrip $top.statusbar.grip] −side right −anchor se

Using grid:

grid [ttk::sizegrip $top.statusbar.grip] \
−row $lastRow −column $lastColumn −sticky se
# ... optional: add vertical scrollbar in $lastColumn,
# ... optional: add horizontal scrollbar in $lastRow

BUGS

If the containing toplevel’s position was specified relative to the right or bottom of the screen (e.g., “wm geometry ... wxh−x−y” instead of “wm geometry ... wxh+x+y”), the sizegrip widget will not resize the window.

ttk::sizegrip widgets only support “southeast” resizing.
