menubutton
A menubutton widget displays like a button, but when activated a menu pops
up. The menu of the menubutton is defined through the menu
command
and is attached to the menubutton.
An example of a menu button:
menubutton .mb -menu .mb.m -text "mymenu" menu .mb.m .mb.m add command -label hello .mb.m add command -label goodbye
which crates a menubutton widget named .mb
with attached menu
.mb.m
and displays the text `mymenu'. Menu .mb.m
is
defined as two command options, one labelled hello
and the other
labelled goodbye
. When the menubutton .mb
is clicked on
then the menu .mb.m
will popup and its options can be chosen.
