The iwidgets::extfileselectionbox command creates an extended file selection box which is slightly different than the fileselectionbox widget. The differences are mostly cosmetic in that the listboxes are within a panedwindow and the entryfields for the filter and selection have been replaced by comboboxes. Other than that the interface is practically the same.

The iwidgets::extfileselectionbox 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 extfileselectionbox widgets:

pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the iwidgets::extfileselectionbox command.
pathName childsite
Returns the child site widget path name.
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 iwidgets::extfileselectionbox command.
pathName filter
Update the current contents of the extended file selection box based on the current filter combobox value.
pathName get
Returns the current value of the selection combobox widget.
