Tk::LabFrame - labeled frame.
This module is not included with the standard ActivePerl distribution. It is available as a separate download using PPM.
use Tk::LabFrame;
$f = $parent->LabFrame(?-label=>text,
-labelside=>where, ...?);
LabFrame is exactly like Frame and additionaly allows to
add a label to the frame.
LabFrame supports the same options as the
Frame widget.
Additional options of LabFrame are:
- -label => text
-
The text of the label to be placed with the Frame.
- -labelside => where
-
Where can be one of left, right, top, bottom or acrosstop.
The first four work as might be expected and place the label to the
left, right, above or below the frame respectively. The acrosstop
creates a grooved frame around the central frame and puts the label
near the northwest corner such that it appears to ``overwrite'' the
groove.
Run the following test program to see this in action:
use strict;
use Tk;
require Tk::LabFrame;
require Tk::LabEntry;
my $test = 'Test this';
my $mw = Tk::MainWindow->new;
my $f = $mw->LabFrame(-label => "This is a label",
-labelside => "acrosstop");
$f->LabEntry(-label => "Testing", -textvariable => \$test)->pack;
$f->pack;
Tk::MainLoop;
Perhaps LabFrame should be subsumed within the generic pTk
labeled widget mechanism.
