widget.
METHODS
The iwidgets::spintime 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 spintime widgets:
WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the iwid‐
gets::spintime 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 avail‐
able 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::spintime command.
pathName get ?format?
Returns the current contents of the spintime widget in a format
of string or as an integer clock value using the -string and
-clicks format options respectively. The default is by string.
Reference the clock command for more information on obtaining
time and its formats.
pathName show time
Changes the currently displayed time to be that of the time
argument. The time may be specified either as a string, an
integer clock value or the keyword "now". Reference the clock
command for more information on obtaining times and its format.
