[ABU] 13-feb-2006 - Paved Widgets 1.1 - This page contents and live-links updated.


Paved-widgets 1.1
is a collection of standard widgets enhanced with background-tessellation capability (tiling).

Paved widgets are: 

   * Paved::toplevel
   * Paved::frame 
   * Paved::button 
   * Paved::label 
   * Paved::canvas 
   * Paved::Tree   '''new in 1.1''' 

These widgets have been inspired by the BLT package. 

Paved-widgets are pure-tcl widgets requiring the (pure-tcl) [snit] package. 

Here are some a samples:

Paved Widgets (1.0) contains a new widget '''Paved::canvas''' replacing the (now obsolete) xCanvas widgets :

   * [scanvas]
   * [tcanvas]
   * [tscanvas]

[LV] Are these widgets compatible with the [Tile] package?

[ABU]
To be honest, I never used '''Tile''' ... 

'''Paved Widgets''' are ''extensions'' of the standard Tk widgets; I mean you can use '''Paved::toplevel''' instead of '''toplevel''' without any difference.

Of course, if you want to exploit its benefits, you should add the "-tile' option;  Something like this :

 set top [Paved::toplevel .topW ... options]
  ....
 $top configure -tile cheese.gif
