See the

[
-command command] Specifies the command
to be called when the user chooses on a filename (usually by selecting the
filename and clicking on the "OK" button"). The command is
called with one argument, the complete pathname of the file.
Name: btns
Class: TixStdButtonBox
- The StdButtonBox subwidget at the bottom of FileSelectDialog. It contains
the "OK", "Filter, "Cancel" and "Help"
buttons.
Name: fsbox
Class: TixFileSelectBox
- The FileSelectBox subwidget at the top of the FileSelectDialog.
The
tixFileSelectDialog command creates a new window (given by the
pathName argument) and makes it into a FileSelectDialog widget.
Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command line or
in the option database to configure aspects of the FileSelectDialog such as
its cursor and relief.
The FileSelectDialog widget provides an convenient method for the user to select
files. The FileSelectBox is similar to the standard Motif(TM) file-selection
box.
The
tixFileSelectDialog command creates a new Tcl command whose name is
the same as the path name of the FileSelectDialog's window. This command may
be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has the following
general form:
pathName option ?arg arg ...?
PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as the
FileSelectDialog widget's path name.
Option and the
args
determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are
possible for FileSelectDialog 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
tixFileSelectDialog command.
- 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 tixFileSelectDialog command.
- pathName popdown
- Withdraws the FileSelectDialog from the screen.
- pathName popup
- Pops up the FileSelectDialog on the screen.
- pathName subwidget name ?args?
- When no options are given, this command returns the pathname of the
subwidget of the specified name.
When options are given, the widget command of the specified subwidget will
be called with these options.
