TIP #366: VARIABLE SIZED INDICATORS FOR MENUBUTTONS ===================================================== Version: $Revision: 1.4 $ Author: Russell Davidson State: Draft Type: Project Tcl-Version: 8.7 Vote: Pending Created: Thursday, 29 April 2010 URL: https://tip.tcl-lang.org366.html Post-History: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT ========== This TIP is to allow custom sizing of menubutton indicators using *-indwidth* and *-indheight* as options. RATIONALE =========== Currently there is no way to vary the size of the indicator for a classic Unix menubutton widget. Adding the ability to control this via configuration options will give the coder more control over a GUI's appearance for when such fine control is required. SPECIFICATION =============== The following options are proposed to be added to the *::menubutton* widget: The *-indwidth* option allows the specification of the width of the indicator in 10ths of a mm (will be converted to an integer number of pixels). The *-indheight* option allows the specification of the height of the indicator in 10ths of a mm (will be converted to an integer number of pixels). IMPLEMENTATION ================ A patch exists in SourceForge (Feature Request 2996760 []).
