NAME

SYNOPSIS

    use Tk::LabFrame;
    $f = $top->LabFrame(-label => "Something",
                        -labelside => 'acrosstop');

DESCRIPTION

-label The text of the label to be placed with the Frame.

-labelside 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 last one 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 Tk;
    require Tk::LabFrame;
    require Tk::LabEntry;

    my $test = 'Test this';
    $top = MainWindow->new;
    my $f = $top->LabFrame(-label => "This is a label",
                           -labelside => "acrosstop");
    $f->LabEntry(-label => "Testing", -textvariable => \$test)->pack;
    $f->pack;
    MainLoop;

Perhaps LabFrame should be subsumed within the generic pTk labeled widget mechanism. =head1 \s-1AUTHOR\s0 Rajappa Iyer rsi@earthling.net This code is derived from LabFrame.tcl and LabWidg.tcl in the Tix4.0 distribution by Ioi Lam. The code may be redistributed under the same terms as Perl. =cut
