Defaults to 1.0. =item Name: B<confine> =item Class: B<Confine> =item Switch: B<-confine> Specifies a boolean value that indicates whether or not it should be allowable to set the canvas's view outside the region defined by the B<scrollRegion> argument. Defaults to true, which means that the view will be constrained within the scroll region. =item Name: B<height> =item Class: B<Height> =item Switch: B<-height> Specifies a desired window height that the canvas widget should request from its geometry manager. The value may be specified in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section below. =item Name: B<scrollRegion> =item Class: B<ScrollRegion> =item Switch: B<-scrollregion> Specifies a list with four coordinates describing the left, top, right, and bottom coordinates of a rectangular region. This region is used for scrolling purposes and is considered to be the boundary of the information in the canvas. Each of the coordinates may be specified in any of the forms given in the L<"COORDINATES"> section below. =item Name: B<state> =item Class: B<State> =item Switch: B<-state> Modifies the default state of the canvas where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. Individual canvas objects all have their own state option, which overrides the default state. Many options can take separate specifications such that the appearance of the item can be different in different situations. The options that start with "active" control the appearence when the mouse pointer is over it, while the option starting with "disabled" controls the appearence when the state is disabled. =item Name: B<width> =item Class: B<width> =item Switch: B<-width> Specifies a desired window width that the canvas widget should request from its geometry manager. The value may be specified in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section below. =item Name: B<xScrollIncrement> =item Class: B<ScrollIncrement> =item Switch: B<-xscrollincrement> Specifies an increment for horizontal scrolling, in any of the usual forms permitted for screen distances. If the value of this option is greater than zero, the horizontal view in the window will be constrained so that the canvas x coordinate at the left edge of the window is always an even multiple of B<xScrollIncrement>; furthermore, the units for scrolling (e.g., the change in view when the left and right arrows of a scrollbar are selected) will also be B<xScrollIncrement>. If the value of this option is less than or equal to zero, then horizontal scrolling is unconstrained. =item Name: B<yScrollIncrement> =item Class: B<ScrollIncrement> =item Switch: B<-yscrollincrement> Specifies an increment for vertical scrolling, in any of the usual forms permitted for screen distances. If the value of this option is greater than zero, the vertical view in the window will be constrained so that the canvas y coordinate at the top edge of the window is always an even multiple of B<yScrollIncrement>; furthermore, the units for scrolling (e.g., the change in view when the top and bottom arrows of a scrollbar are selected) will also be B<yScrollIncrement>. If the value of this option is less than or equal to zero, then vertical scrolling is unconstrained. =back =head1 DESCRIPTION The B<Canvas> method creates a new window (given by the $canvas argument) and makes it into a canvas widget. Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command line or in the option database to configure aspects of the canvas such as its colors and 3-D relief. The B<canvas> command returns its $canvas argument. At the time this command is invoked, there must not exist a window named $canvas, but $canvas's parent must exist. Canvas widgets implement structured graphics. A canvas displays any number of I<items>, which may be things like rectangles, circles, lines, and text. Items may be manipulated (e.g. moved or re-colored) and L<callbacks|Tk::callbacks> may be associated with items in much the same way that the L<bind|Tk::bind> method allows callbacks to be bound to widgets. For example, a particular callback may be associated with the B<E<lt>Button-1E<gt>> event so that the callback is invoked whenever button 1 is pressed with the mouse cursor over an item. This means that items in a canvas can have behaviors defined by the Callbacks bound to them. =head1 DISPLAY LIST The items in a canvas are ordered for purposes of display, with the first item in the display list being displayed first, followed by the next item in the list, and so on. Items later in the display list obscure those that are earlier in the display list and are sometimes referred to as being I<``on top''> of earlier items. When a new item is created it is placed at the end of the display list, on top of everything else. Widget methods may be used to re-arrange the order of the display list. Window items are an exception to the above rules. The underlying window systems require them always to be drawn on top of other items. In addition, the stacking order of window items is not affected by any of the canvas methods; you must use the L<raise|Tk::Widget> and L<lower|Tk::Widget> Tk widget methods instead. =head1 ITEM IDS AND TAGS Items in a canvas widget may be named in either of two ways: by id or by tag. Each item has a unique identifying number which is assigned to that item when it is created. The id of an item never changes and id numbers are never re-used within the lifetime of a canvas widget. Each item may also have any number of I<tags> associated with it. A tag is just a string of characters, and it may take any form except that of an integer. For example, ``x123'' is OK but ``123'' isn't. The same tag may be associated with many different items. This is commonly done to group items in various interesting ways; for example, all selected items might be given the tag ``selected''. The tag B<all> is implicitly associated with every item in the canvas; it may be used to invoke operations on all the items in the canvas. The tag B<current> is managed automatically by Tk; it applies to the I<current item>, which is the topmost item whose drawn area covers the position of the mouse cursor. If the mouse is not in the canvas widget or is not over an item, then no item has the B<current> tag. When specifying items in canvas methods, if the specifier is an integer then it is assumed to refer to the single item with that id. If the specifier is not an integer, then it is assumed to refer to all of the items in the canvas that have a tag matching the specifier. The symbol I<tagOrId> is used below to indicate that an argument specifies either an id that selects a single item or a tag that selects zero or more items. I<tagOrId> may contain a logical expressions of tags by using operators: 'E<amp>E<amp>', '||', '^' '!', and parenthezised subexpressions. For example: $c-E<gt>find('withtag', '(aE<amp>E<amp>!b)|(!aE<amp>E<amp>b)'); or equivalently: $c-E<gt>find('withtag', 'a^b'); will find only those items with either "a" or "b" tags, but not both. Some methods only operate on a single item at a time; if I<tagOrId> is specified in a way that names multiple items, then the normal behavior is for the methods is to use the first (lowest) of these items in the display list that is suitable for the method. Exceptions are noted in the method descriptions below. =head1 COORDINATES All coordinates related to canvases are stored as floating-point numbers. Coordinates and distances are specified in screen units, which are floating-point numbers optionally followed by one of several letters. If no letter is supplied then the distance is in pixels. If the letter is B<m> then the distance is in millimeters on the screen; if it is B<c> then the distance is in centimeters; B<i> means inches, and B<p> means printers points (1/72 inch). Larger y-coordinates refer to points lower on the screen; larger x-coordinates refer to points farther to the right. =head1 TRANSFORMATIONS Normally the origin of the canvas coordinate system is at the upper-left corner of the window containing the canvas. It is possible to adjust the origin of the canvas coordinate system relative to the origin of the window using the B<xview> and B<yview> methods; this is typically used for scrolling. Canvases do not support scaling or rotation of the canvas coordinate system relative to the window coordinate system. Individual items may be moved or scaled using methods described below, but they may not be rotated. =head1 INDICES Text items support the notion of an I<index> for identifying particular positions within the item. Indices are used for methods such as inserting text, deleting a range of characters, and setting the insertion cursor position. An index may be specified in any of a number of ways, and different types of items may support different forms for specifying indices. In a similar fashion, line and polygon items support I<index> for identifying, inserting and deleting subsets of their coordinates. Indices are used for commands such as inserting or deleting a range of characters or coordinates, and setting the insertion cursor position. An index may be specified in any of a number of ways, and different types of items may support different forms for specifying indices. Text items support the following forms for an index; if you define new types of text-like items, it would be advisable to support as many of these forms as practical. Note that it is possible to refer to the character just after the last one in the text item; this is necessary for such tasks as inserting new text at the end of the item. Lines and Polygons don't support the insertion cursor and the selection. Their indices are supposed to be even always, because coordinates always appear in pairs. =over 4 =item I<number> A decimal number giving the position of the desired character within the text item. 0 refers to the first character, 1 to the next character, and so on. If indexes are odd for lines and polygons, they will be automatically decremented by one. A number less than 0 is treated as if it were zero, and a number greater than the length of the text item is treated as if it were equal to the length of the text item. For polygons, numbers less than 0 or greater then the length of the coordinate list will be adjusted by adding or substracting the length until the result is between zero and the length, inclusive. =item B<end> Refers to the character or coordinate just after the last one in the item (same as the number of characters or coordinates in the item). =item B<insert> Refers to the character just before which the insertion cursor is drawn in this item. Not valid for lines and polygons. =item B<sel.first> Refers to the first selected character in the item. If the selection isn't in this item then this form is illegal. =item B<sel.last> Refers to the last selected character in the item. If the selection isn't in this item then this form is illegal. =item B<[>I<x,y>B<]> Refers to the character or coordinate at the point given by I<x> and I<y>, where I<x> and I<y> are specified in the coordinate system of the canvas. If I<x> and I<y> lie outside the coordinates covered by the text item, then they refer to the first or last character in the line that is closest to the given point. The Tcl string form "@x,y" is also allowed. =back =head1 DASH PATTERNS Many items support the notion of an dash pattern for outlines. The first possible syntax is a list of integers. Each element represents the number of pixels of a line segment. Only the odd segments are drawn using the "outline" color. The other segments are drawn transparent. The second possible syntax is a character list containing only 5 possible characters B<[.,-_ ]>, with the first 4 characters producing a segment of length 1 to 4, respectively, followed by a transparent segment of length 2. The space can be used repeatedly to enlarge the space between other line elements by 1, and can not occur as the first position in the string. The main difference of this syntax with the previous one is that it it shape-conserving. This means that all values in the dash list will be multiplied by the line width before display. This assures that "." will always be displayed as a dot and "-" always as a dash regardless of the line width. Some examples, for a line width of 2: -dash . = -dash [2,4] -dash - = -dash [6,4] -dash -. = -dash [6,4,2,4] -dash -.. = -dash [6,4,2,4,2,4] -dash '. ' = -dash [2,8] -dash ',' = -dash [4,4] On systems where only a limited set of dash patterns is available, the dash pattern will be displayed as the closest available dash pattern. For example, on Windows only the first 4 of the above examples are available. The last 2 examples will be displayed identically as the first one. =head1 WIDGET METHODS The B<Canvas> method creates a widget object. This object supports the B<configure> and B<cget> methods described in L<Tk::options> which can be used to enquire and modify the options described above. The widget also inherits all the methods provided by the generic L<Tk::Widget|Tk::Widget> class. The following additional methods are available for canvas widgets: =over 4 =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<addtag>(I<tag, searchSpec, >?I<arg, arg, ...>?) For each item that meets the constraints specified by I<searchSpec> and the I<arg>s, add I<tag> to the list of tags associated with the item if it isn't already present on that list. It is possible that no items will satisfy the constraints given by I<searchSpec> and I<arg>s, in which case the method has no effect. This command returns an empty string as result. I<SearchSpec> and I<arg>'s may take any of the following forms: =over 8 =item B<above >I<tagOrId> Selects the item just after (above) the one given by I<tagOrId> in the display list. If I<tagOrId> denotes more than one item, then the last (topmost) of these items in the display list is used. =item B<all> Selects all the items in the canvas. =item B<below >I<tagOrId> Selects the item just before (below) the one given by I<tagOrId> in the display list. If I<tagOrId> denotes more than one item, then the first (lowest) of these items in the display list is used. =item B<closest >I<x y >?I<halo>? ?I<start>? Selects the item closest to the point given by I<x> and I<y>. If more than one item is at the same closest distance (e.g. two items overlap the point), then the top-most of these items (the last one in the display list) is used. If I<halo> is specified, then it must be a non-negative value. Any item closer than I<halo> to the point is considered to overlap it. The I<start> argument may be used to step circularly through all the closest items. If I<start> is specified, it names an item using a tag or id (if by tag, it selects the first item in the display list with the given tag). Instead of selecting the topmost closest item, this form will select the topmost closest item that is below I<start> in the display list; if no such item exists, then the selection behaves as if the I<start> argument had not been specified. =item B<enclosed> I<x1> I<y1> I<x2> I<y2> Selects all the items completely enclosed within the rectangular region given by I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2>. I<X1> must be no greater then I<x2> and I<y1> must be no greater than I<y2>. =item B<overlapping> I<x1> I<y1> I<x2> I<y2> Selects all the items that overlap or are enclosed within the rectangular region given by I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2>. I<X1> must be no greater then I<x2> and I<y1> must be no greater than I<y2>. =item B<withtag >I<tagOrId> Selects all the items given by I<tagOrId>. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<bbox>(I<tagOrId, >?I<tagOrId, tagOrId, ...>?) Returns a list with four elements giving an approximate bounding box for all the items named by the I<tagOrId> arguments. The list has the form ``I<x1 y1 x2 y2>'' such that the drawn areas of all the named elements are within the region bounded by I<x1> on the left, I<x2> on the right, I<y1> on the top, and I<y2> on the bottom. The return value may overestimate the actual bounding box by a few pixels. If no items match any of the I<tagOrId> arguments or if the matching items have empty bounding boxes (i.e. they have nothing to display) then an empty string is returned. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<bind>(I<tagOrId>?, I<sequence>? ?,I<callback>?) This method associates I<callback> with all the items given by I<tagOrId> such that whenever the event sequence given by I<sequence> occurs for one of the items the callback will be invoked. This method is similar to the B<bind> method except that it operates on items in a canvas rather than entire widgets. See L<Tk::bind> for complete details on the syntax of I<sequence> and the substitutions performed on I<callback> before invoking it. If all arguments are specified then a new binding is created, replacing any existing binding for the same I<sequence> and I<tagOrId> (if the first character of I<command> is ``+'' then I<command> augments an existing binding rather than replacing it). In this case the return value is an empty string. If I<callback> is omitted then the method returns the I<callback> associated with I<tagOrId> and I<sequence> (an error occurs if there is no such binding). If both I<callback> and I<sequence> are omitted then the method returns a list of all the sequences for which bindings have been defined for I<tagOrId>. =over 8 The only events for which bindings may be specified are those related to the mouse and keyboard (such as B<Enter>, B<Leave>, B<ButtonPress>, B<Motion>, and B<KeyPress>) or virtual events. The handling of events in canvases uses the current item defined in L<"ITEM IDS AND TAGS"> above. B<Enter> and B<Leave> events trigger for an item when it becomes the current item or ceases to be the current item; note that these events are different than B<Enter> and B<Leave> events for windows. Mouse-related events are directed to the current item, if any. Keyboard-related events are directed to the focus item, if any (see the L<focus|/focus> method below for more on this). If a virtual event is used in a binding, that binding can trigger only if the virtual event is defined by an underlying mouse-related or keyboard-related event. It is possible for multiple bindings to match a particular event. This could occur, for example, if one binding is associated with the item's id and another is associated with one of the item's tags. When this occurs, all of the matching bindings are invoked. A binding associated with the B<all> tag is invoked first, followed by one binding for each of the item's tags (in order), followed by a binding associated with the item's id. If there are multiple matching bindings for a single tag, then only the most specific binding is invoked. A B<continue> in a callback terminates that subroutine, and a B<break> method terminates that subroutine and skips any remaining callbacks for the event, just as for the B<bind> method. If bindings have been created for a canvas window using the B<CanvasBind> method, then they are invoked in addition to bindings created for the canvas's items using the B<bind> method. The bindings for items will be invoked before any of the bindings for the window as a whole. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<canvasx>(I<screenx>?, I<gridspacing>?) Given a window x-coordinate in the canvas I<screenx>, this method returns the canvas x-coordinate that is displayed at that location. If I<gridspacing> is specified, then the canvas coordinate is rounded to the nearest multiple of I<gridspacing> units. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<canvasy>(I<screeny, >?I<gridspacing>?) Given a window y-coordinate in the canvas I<screeny> this method returns the canvas y-coordinate that is displayed at that location. If I<gridspacing> is specified, then the canvas coordinate is rounded to the nearest multiple of I<gridspacing> units. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<coords>(I<tagOrId >?I<x0,y0 ...>?) Query or modify the coordinates that define an item. If no coordinates are specified, this method returns a list whose elements are the coordinates of the item named by I<tagOrId>. If coordinates are specified, then they replace the current coordinates for the named item. If I<tagOrId> refers to multiple items, then the first one in the display list is used. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<create>(I<type, x, y, >?I<x, y, ...>?, ?I<option, value, ...>?) Create a new item in I<$canvas> of type I<type>. The exact format of the arguments after B<type> depends on B<type>, but usually they consist of the coordinates for one or more points, followed by specifications for zero or more item options. See the subsections on individual item types below for more on the syntax of this method. This method returns the id for the new item. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<dchars>(I<tagOrId, first, >?I<last>?) For each item given by I<tagOrId>, delete the characters, or coordinates, in the range given by I<first> and I<last>, inclusive. If some of the items given by I<tagOrId> don't support Text items interpret I<first> and I<last> as indices to a character, line and polygon items interpret them indices to a coordinate (an x,y pair). within the item(s) as described in L<"INDICES"> above. If I<last> is omitted, it defaults to I<first>. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<delete>(?I<tagOrId, tagOrId, ...>?) Delete each of the items given by each I<tagOrId>, and return an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<dtag>(I<tagOrId, >?I<tagToDelete>?) For each of the items given by I<tagOrId>, delete the tag given by I<tagToDelete> from the list of those associated with the item. If an item doesn't have the tag I<tagToDelete> then the item is unaffected by the method. If I<tagToDelete> is omitted then it defaults to I<tagOrId>. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<find>(I<searchCommand, >?I<arg, arg, ...>?) This method returns a list consisting of all the items that meet the constraints specified by I<searchCommand> and I<arg>'s. I<SearchCommand> and I<args> have any of the forms accepted by the B<addtag> method. The items are returned in stacking order, with the lowest item first. =item focus =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<focus>(?I<tagOrId>?) Set the keyboard focus for the canvas widget to the item given by I<tagOrId>. If I<tagOrId> refers to several items, then the focus is set to the first such item in the display list that supports the insertion cursor. If I<tagOrId> doesn't refer to any items, or if none of them support the insertion cursor, then the focus isn't changed. If I<tagOrId> is an empty string, then the focus item is reset so that no item has the focus. If I<tagOrId> is not specified then the method returns the id for the item that currently has the focus, or an empty string if no item has the focus. =over 8 Once the focus has been set to an item, the item will display the insertion cursor and all keyboard events will be directed to that item. The focus item within a canvas and the focus window on the screen (set with the B<focus> method) are totally independent: a given item doesn't actually have the input focus unless (a) its canvas is the focus window and (b) the item is the focus item within the canvas. In most cases it is advisable to follow the B<focus> widget method with the B<CanvasFocus> method to set the focus window to the canvas (if it wasn't there already). =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<gettags>(I<tagOrId>) Return a list whose elements are the tags associated with the item given by I<tagOrId>. If I<tagOrId> refers to more than one item, then the tags are returned from the first such item in the display list. If I<tagOrId> doesn't refer to any items, or if the item contains no tags, then an empty string is returned. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<icursor>(I<tagOrId, index>) Set the position of the insertion cursor for the item(s) given by I<tagOrId> to just before the character whose position is given by I<index>. If some or all of the items given by I<tagOrId> don't support an insertion cursor then this method has no effect on them. See L<"INDICES"> above for a description of the legal forms for I<index>. Note: the insertion cursor is only displayed in an item if that item currently has the keyboard focus (see the widget method B<focus>, below), but the cursor position may be set even when the item doesn't have the focus. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<index>(I<tagOrId, index>) This method returns a decimal string giving the numerical index within I<tagOrId> corresponding to I<index>. I<Index> gives a textual description of the desired position as described in L<"INDICES"> above. Text items interpret I<index> as an index to a character, line and polygon items interpret it as an index to a coordinate (an x,y pair). The return value is guaranteed to lie between 0 and the number of characters, or coordinates, within the item, inclusive. If I<tagOrId> refers to multiple items, then the index is processed in the first of these items that supports indexing operations (in display list order). =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<insert>(I<tagOrId, beforeThis, string>) For each of the items given by I<tagOrId>, if the item supports text or coordinate, insertion then I<string> is inserted into the item's text just before the character, or coordinate, whose index is I<beforeThis>. Text items interpret I<beforethis> as an index to a character, line and polygon items interpret it as an index to a coordinate (an x,y pair). For lines and polygons the I<string> must be a valid coordinate sequence. See L<"INDICES"> above for information about the forms allowed for I<beforeThis>. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<itemcget>(I<tagOrId, >I<option>) Returns the current value of the configuration option for the item given by I<tagOrId> whose name is I<option>. This method is similar to the L<cget|Tk::option> method except that it applies to a particular item rather than the widget as a whole. I<Option> may have any of the values accepted by the B<create> method when the item was created. If I<tagOrId> is a tag that refers to more than one item, the first (lowest) such item is used. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<itemconfigure>(I<tagOrId, >?I<option>?, ?I<value>?, ?I<option, value, ...>?) This method is similar to the L<configure|Tk::option> method except that it modifies item-specific options for the items given by I<tagOrId> instead of modifying options for the overall canvas widget. If no I<option> is specified, returns a list describing all of the available options for the first item given by I<tagOrId> (see L<Tk::options> for information on the format of this list). If I<option> is specified with no I<value>, then the method returns a list describing the one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist of the value returned if no I<option> is specified). If one or more I<option-value> pairs are specified, then the method modifies the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s) in each of the items given by I<tagOrId>; in this case the method returns an empty string. The I<option>s and I<value>s are the same as those permissible in the B<create> method when the item(s) were created; see the sections describing individual item types below for details on the legal options. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<lower>(I<tagOrId, >?I<belowThis>?) Move all of the items given by I<tagOrId> to a new position in the display list just before the item given by I<belowThis>. If I<tagOrId> refers to more than one item then all are moved but the relative order of the moved items will not be changed. I<BelowThis> is a tag or id; if it refers to more than one item then the first (lowest) of these items in the display list is used as the destination location for the moved items. Note: this method has no effect on window items. Window items always obscure other item types, and the stacking order of window items is determined by the B<raise> and B<lower> methods of the widget, not the B<raise> and B<lower> methods for canvases. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<move>(I<tagOrId, xAmount, yAmount>) Move each of the items given by I<tagOrId> in the canvas coordinate space by adding I<xAmount> to the x-coordinate of each point associated with the item and I<yAmount> to the y-coordinate of each point associated with the item. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<postscript>(?I<option, value, option, value, ...>?) Generate a Postscript representation for part or all of the canvas. If the B<-file> option is specified then the Postscript is written to a file and an empty string is returned; otherwise the Postscript is returned as the result of the method. If the interpreter that owns the canvas is marked as safe, the operation will fail because safe interpreters are not allowed to write files. If the B<-channel> option is specified, the argument denotes the name of a channel already opened for writing. The Postscript is written to that channel, and the channel is left open for further writing at the end of the operation. The Postscript is created in Encapsulated Postscript form using version 3.0 of the Document Structuring Conventions. Note: by default Postscript is only generated for information that appears in the canvas's window on the screen. If the canvas is freshly created it may still have its initial size of 1x1 pixel so nothing will appear in the Postscript. To get around this problem either invoke the B<update> method to wait for the canvas window to reach its final size, or else use the B<-width> and B<-height> options to specify the area of the canvas to print. The I<option>-I<value> argument pairs provide additional information to control the generation of Postscript. The following options are supported: =over 8 =item B<-colormap> =E<gt> I<hashRef> I<HashRef> must be a reference to a hash variable or an anonymous hash that specifies a color mapping to use in the Postscript. Each value of the hash must consist of Postscript code to set a particular color value (e.g. ``B<1.0 1.0 0.0 setrgbcolor>''). When outputting color information in the Postscript, Tk checks to see if there is a key in the hash with the same name as the color. If so, Tk uses the value of the element as the Postscript method to set the color. If this option hasn't been specified, or if there isn't a key in I<hashRef> for a given color, then Tk uses the red, green, and blue intensities from the X color. =item B<-colormode> =E<gt> I<mode> Specifies how to output color information. I<Mode> must be either B<color> (for full color output), B<gray> (convert all colors to their gray-scale equivalents) or B<mono> (convert all colors to black or white). =item B<-file> =E<gt> I<fileName> Specifies the name of the file in which to write the Postscript. If this option isn't specified then the Postscript is returned as the result of the method instead of being written to a file. =item B<-fontmap> =E<gt> I<hashRef> I<HashRef> must be a reference to a hash variable or an anonymous hash that specifies a font mapping to use in the Postscript. Each value of the hash must consist of an array reference with two elements, which are the name and point size of a Postscript font. When outputting Postscript commands for a particular font, Tk checks to see if I<hashRef> contains a value with the same name as the font. If there is such an element, then the font information contained in that element is used in the Postscript. Otherwise Tk attempts to guess what Postscript font to use. Tk's guesses generally only work for well-known fonts such as Times and Helvetica and Courier, and only if the X font name does not omit any dashes up through the point size. For example, B<-*-Courier-Bold-R-Normal--*-120-*> will work but B<*Courier-Bold-R-Normal*120*> will not; Tk needs the dashes to parse the font name). =item B<-height> =E<gt> I<size> Specifies the height of the area of the canvas to print. Defaults to the height of the canvas window. =item B<-pageanchor> =E<gt> I<anchor> Specifies which point of the printed area of the canvas should appear over the positioning point on the page (which is given by the B<-pagex> and B<-pagey> options). For example, B<-pageanchor>=>B<n> means that the top center of the area of the canvas being printed (as it appears in the canvas window) should be over the positioning point. Defaults to B<center>. =item B<-pageheight> =E<gt> I<size> Specifies that the Postscript should be scaled in both x and y so that the printed area is I<size> high on the Postscript page. I<Size> consists of a floating-point number followed by B<c> for centimeters, B<i> for inches, B<m> for millimeters, or B<p> or nothing for printer's points (1/72 inch). Defaults to the height of the printed area on the screen. If both B<-pageheight> and B<-pagewidth> are specified then the scale factor from B<-pagewidth> is used (non-uniform scaling is not implemented). =item B<-pagewidth> =E<gt> I<size> Specifies that the Postscript should be scaled in both x and y so that the printed area is I<size> wide on the Postscript page. I<Size> has the same form as for B<-pageheight>. Defaults to the width of the printed area on the screen. If both B<-pageheight> and B<-pagewidth> are specified then the scale factor from B<-pagewidth> is used (non-uniform scaling is not implemented). =item B<-pagex> =E<gt> I<position> I<Position> gives the x-coordinate of the positioning point on the Postscript page, using any of the forms allowed for B<-pageheight>. Used in conjunction with the B<-pagey> and B<-pageanchor> options to determine where the printed area appears on the Postscript page. Defaults to the center of the page. =item B<-pagey> =E<gt> I<position> I<Position> gives the y-coordinate of the positioning point on the Postscript page, using any of the forms allowed for B<-pageheight>. Used in conjunction with the B<-pagex> and B<-pageanchor> options to determine where the printed area appears on the Postscript page. Defaults to the center of the page. =item B<-rotate> =E<gt> I<boolean> I<Boolean> specifies whether the printed area is to be rotated 90 degrees. In non-rotated output the x-axis of the printed area runs along the short dimension of the page (``portrait'' orientation); in rotated output the x-axis runs along the long dimension of the page (``landscape'' orientation). Defaults to non-rotated. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<size> Specifies the width of the area of the canvas to print. Defaults to the width of the canvas window. =item B<-x> => I<position> Specifies the x-coordinate of the left edge of the area of the canvas that is to be printed, in canvas coordinates, not window coordinates. Defaults to the coordinate of the left edge of the window. =item B<-y> => I<position> Specifies the y-coordinate of the top edge of the area of the canvas that is to be printed, in canvas coordinates, not window coordinates. Defaults to the coordinate of the top edge of the window. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<raise>(I<tagOrId, >?I<aboveThis>?) Move all of the items given by I<tagOrId> to a new position in the display list just after the item given by I<aboveThis>. If I<tagOrId> refers to more than one item then all are moved but the relative order of the moved items will not be changed. I<AboveThis> is a tag or id; if it refers to more than one item then the last (topmost) of these items in the display list is used as the destination location for the moved items. Note: this method has no effect on window items. Window items always obscure other item types, and the stacking order of window items is determined by the B<raise> and B<lower> widget commands, not the B<raise> and B<lower> methods for canvases. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<scale>(I<tagOrId, xOrigin, yOrigin, xScale, yScale>) Rescale all of the items given by I<tagOrId> in canvas coordinate space. I<XOrigin> and I<yOrigin> identify the origin for the scaling operation and I<xScale> and I<yScale> identify the scale factors for x- and y-coordinates, respectively (a scale factor of 1.0 implies no change to that coordinate). For each of the points defining each item, the x-coordinate is adjusted to change the distance from I<xOrigin> by a factor of I<xScale>. Similarly, each y-coordinate is adjusted to change the distance from I<yOrigin> by a factor of I<yScale>. This method returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<scan>(I<option, args>) This method is used to implement scanning on canvases. It has two forms, depending on I<option>: =over 8 =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<scanMark>(I<x, y>) Records I<x> and I<y> and the canvas's current view; used in conjunction with later B<scanDragto> method. Typically this method is associated with a mouse button press in the widget and I<x> and I<y> are the coordinates of the mouse. It returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<scanDragto>(I<x, y, ?gain?>.) This method computes the difference between its I<x> and I<y> arguments (which are typically mouse coordinates) and the I<x> and I<y> arguments to the last B<scanMark> method for the widget. It then adjusts the view by 10 times the difference in coordinates. This method is typically associated It then adjusts the view by I<gain> times the difference in coordinates, where I<gain> defaults to 10. This command is typically associated with mouse motion events in the widget, to produce the effect of dragging the canvas at high speed through its window. The return value is an empty string. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<select>(I<option, >?I<tagOrId, arg>?) Manipulates the selection in one of several ways, depending on I<option>. The method may take any of the forms described below. In all of the descriptions below, I<tagOrId> must refer to an item that supports indexing and selection; if it refers to multiple items then the first of these that supports indexing and the selection is used. I<Index> gives a textual description of a position within I<tagOrId>, as described in L<"INDICES"> above. =over 8 =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<selectAdjust>(I<tagOrId, index>) Locate the end of the selection in I<tagOrId> nearest to the character given by I<index>, and adjust that end of the selection to be at I<index> (i.e. including but not going beyond I<index>). The other end of the selection is made the anchor point for future B<selectTo> method calls. If the selection isn't currently in I<tagOrId> then this method behaves the same as the B<selectTo> widget method. Returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<selectClear> Clear the selection if it is in this widget. If the selection isn't in this widget then the method has no effect. Returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<selectFrom>(I<tagOrId, index>) Set the selection anchor point for the widget to be just before the character given by I<index> in the item given by I<tagOrId>. This method doesn't change the selection; it just sets the fixed end of the selection for future B<selectTo> method calls. Returns an empty string. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<selectItem> Returns the id of the selected item, if the selection is in an item in this canvas. If the selection is not in this canvas then an empty string is returned. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<selectTo>(I<tagOrId, index>) Set the selection to consist of those characters of I<tagOrId> between the selection anchor point and I<index>. The new selection will include the character given by I<index>; it will include the character given by the anchor point only if I<index> is greater than or equal to the anchor point. The anchor point is determined by the most recent B<selectAdjust> or B<selectFrom> method calls for this widget. If the selection anchor point for the widget isn't currently in I<tagOrId>, then it is set to the same character given by I<index>. Returns an empty string. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<type>(I<tagOrId>) Returns the type of the item given by I<tagOrId>, such as B<rectangle> or B<text>. If I<tagOrId> refers to more than one item, then the type of the first item in the display list is returned. If I<tagOrId> doesn't refer to any items at all then an empty string is returned. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<xview>(?I<args>?) This method is used to query and change the horizontal position of the information displayed in the canvas's window. It can take any of the following forms: =over 8 =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<xview> Returns a list containing two elements. Each element is a real fraction between 0 and 1; together they describe the horizontal span that is visible in the window. For example, if the first element is .2 and the second element is .6, 20% of the canvas's area (as defined by the B<-scrollregion> option) is off-screen to the left, the middle 40% is visible in the window, and 40% of the canvas is off-screen to the right. These are the same values passed to scrollbars via the B<-xscrollcommand> option. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<xviewMoveto>(I<fraction>) Adjusts the view in the window so that I<fraction> of the total width of the canvas is off-screen to the left. I<Fraction> must be a fraction between 0 and 1. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<xviewScroll>(I<number, what>) This method shifts the view in the window left or right according to I<number> and I<what>. I<Number> must be an integer. I<What> must be either B<units> or B<pages> or an abbreviation of one of these. If I<what> is B<units>, the view adjusts left or right in units of the B<xScrollIncrement> option, if it is greater than zero, or in units of one-tenth the window's width otherwise. If I<what is >B<pages> then the view adjusts in units of nine-tenths the window's width. If I<number> is negative then information farther to the left becomes visible; if it is positive then information farther to the right becomes visible. =back =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<yview>(I<?args>?) This method is used to query and change the vertical position of the information displayed in the canvas's window. It can take any of the following forms: =over 8 =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<yview> Returns a list containing two elements. Each element is a real fraction between 0 and 1; together they describe the vertical span that is visible in the window. For example, if the first element is .6 and the second element is 1.0, the lowest 40% of the canvas's area (as defined by the B<-scrollregion> option) is visible in the window. These are the same values passed to scrollbars via the B<-yscrollcommand> option. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<yviewMoveto>(I<fraction>) Adjusts the view in the window so that I<fraction> of the canvas's area is off-screen to the top. I<Fraction> is a fraction between 0 and 1. =item I<$canvas>-E<gt>B<yviewScroll>(I<number, what>) This method adjusts the view in the window up or down according to I<number> and I<what>. I<Number> must be an integer. I<What> must be either B<units> or B<pages>. If I<what> is B<units>, the view adjusts up or down in units of the B<yScrollIncrement> option, if it is greater than zero, or in units of one-tenth the window's height otherwise. If I<what> is B<pages> then the view adjusts in units of nine-tenths the window's height. If I<number> is negative then higher information becomes visible; if it is positive then lower information becomes visible. =back =back =head1 OVERVIEW OF ITEM TYPES The sections below describe the various types of items supported by canvas widgets. Each item type is characterized by two things: first, the form of the B<create> method used to create instances of the type; and second, a set of configuration options for items of that type, which may be used in the B<create> and B<itemconfigure> methods. Most items don't support indexing or selection or the methods related to them, such as B<index> and B<insert>. Where items do support these facilities, it is noted explicitly in the descriptions below. At present, text, line and polygon items provide this support. For lines and polygons the indexing facility is used to manipulate the coordinates of the item. =head1 ARC ITEMS Items of type B<arc> appear on the display as arc-shaped regions. An arc is a section of an oval delimited by two angles (specified by the B<-start> and B<-extent> options) and displayed in one of several ways (specified by the B<-style> option). Arcs are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createArc(x1, y1, x2, y2, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2> give the coordinates of two diagonally opposite corners of a rectangular region enclosing the oval that defines the arc. After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for arcs: =over 4 =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-activedash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, the active state, and the disabled state of an arc item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option. B<-dashoffset> is ignored if there is no B<-dash> pattern. =item B<-extent> =E<gt> I<degrees> Specifies the size of the angular range occupied by the arc. The arc's range extends for I<degrees> degrees counter-clockwise from the starting angle given by the B<-start> option. I<Degrees> may be negative. If it is greater than 360 or less than -360, then I<degrees> modulo 360 is used as the extent. =item B<-fill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activefill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledfill> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to be used to fill the arc region in its normal, active, and disabled states, I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. If I<color> is an empty string (the default), then then the arc will not be filled. =item B<-outline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activeoutline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledoutline> =E<gt> I<color> This option specifies the color that should be used to draw the outline of the arc in its normal, active and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. This option defaults to B<black>. If I<color> is specified as undef then no outline is drawn for the arc. =item B<-outlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activeoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to draw the outline of the arc in its normal, active and disabled states. Indicates that the outline for the arc should be drawn with a stipple pattern; I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then the outline is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-start> =E<gt> I<degrees> Specifies the beginning of the angular range occupied by the arc. I<Degrees> is given in units of degrees measured counter-clockwise from the 3-o'clock position; it may be either positive or negative. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the arc item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, hidden or "". If set to empty, the state of the canvas itself is used. An arc item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to fill the the arc in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-fill> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then filling is done in a solid fashion. =item B<-style> =E<gt> I<type> Specifies how to draw the arc. If I<type> is B<pieslice> (the default) then the arc's region is defined by a section of the oval's perimeter plus two line segments, one between the center of the oval and each end of the perimeter section. If I<type> is B<chord> then the arc's region is defined by a section of the oval's perimeter plus a single line segment connecting the two end points of the perimeter section. If I<type> is B<arc> then the arc's region consists of a section of the perimeter alone. In this last case the B<-fill> option is ignored. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the arc item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-activewidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> Specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the arc's region, in its normal, active and disabled states. I<outlineWidth> may be in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If the B<-outline> option has been specified as undef then this option has no effect. Wide outlines will be drawn centered on the edges of the arc's region. This option defaults to 1.0. =back =head1 BITMAP ITEMS Items of type B<bitmap> appear on the display as images with two colors, foreground and background. Bitmaps are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createBitmap(x, y, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x> and I<y> specify the coordinates of a point used to position the bitmap on the display (see the B<-anchor> option below for more information on how bitmaps are displayed). After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for bitmaps: =over 4 =item B<-anchor> =E<gt> I<anchorPos> I<AnchorPos> tells how to position the bitmap relative to the positioning point for the item; it may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetAnchor>. For example, if I<anchorPos> is B<center> then the bitmap is centered on the point; if I<anchorPos> is B<n> then the bitmap will be drawn so that its top center point is at the positioning point. This option defaults to B<center>. =item B<-background> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activebackground> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledbackground> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to use for each of the bitmap's '0' valued pixels in its normal, active and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. If this option isn't specified, or if it is specified as undef, then nothing is displayed where the bitmap pixels are 0; this produces a transparent effect. =item B<-bitmap> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activebitmap> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledbitmap> =E<gt> I<bitmap> Specifies the bitmaps to display in the item in its normal, active and disabled states. All bitmaps must have the same width and height. I<Bitmap> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. =item B<-foreground> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activeforeground> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledforeground> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to use for each of the bitmap's '1' valued pixels in its normal, active and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor> and defaults to B<black>. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the bitmap item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. An bitmap item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the bitmap item is updated on the screen. =back =head1 GRID ITEMS Items of type B<grid> are intended for producing a visual reference for interpreting other items. They can be drawn as either lines (with dash style) or as rectangular "dots" at each grid point. Items of type B<grid> are unlike other items they always cover the whole of the canvas, but are never enclosed by nor overlap any area and are not near any point. That is they are intended to be always visible but not "pickable", as such they do support the "active" state. They are like other items in that: multiple grids are permitted, they can be raised and lowered relative to other items, they can be moved and scaled. As yet grids do not appear in PostScript output. Grids have outline like configure options. Grids are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createGrid(x1, y1, x2, y2, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1>, I<y1> give the origin of the grid. I<x2>, and I<y2> give the coordinates of the next grid point in their respective directions. After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for grids: =over 4 =item B<-lines> =E<gt> I<boolean> If B<-lines> is set to a true value then lines are drawn for both X and Y grids in the style determined by B<-dash>. Otherwise retangular "dots" are drawn at each grid point. =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, and the disabled state of a grid item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option. B<-dashoffset> is ignored if there is no B<-dash> pattern. =item B<-color> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledcolor> =E<gt> I<color> This option specifies the color that should be used to draw the outline of the grid in its normal and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. This option defaults to B<black>. If I<color> is undef then no grid will be drawn. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to draw the outline of the rectangle in its normal and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then the outline is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the rectangle item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. Many options can take separate specifications in normal and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the grid item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> Specifies the width of the lines drawn by the grid or the size (in both X and Y) of the dots, in its normal and disabled states. This option defaults to 1.0. =back =head1 IMAGE ITEMS Items of type B<image> are used to display images on a canvas. Images are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createImage(x, y, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x> and I<y> specify the coordinates of a point used to position the image on the display (see the B<-anchor> option below for more information). After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for images: =over 4 =item B<-anchor> =E<gt> I<anchorPos> I<AnchorPos> tells how to position the image relative to the positioning point for the item; it may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetAnchor>. For example, if I<anchorPos> is B<center> then the image is centered on the point; if I<anchorPos> is B<n> then the image will be drawn so that its top center point is at the positioning point. This option defaults to B<center>. =item B<-image> =E<gt> I<name> =item B<-activeimage> =E<gt> I<name> =item B<-disabledimage> =E<gt> I<name> Specifies the name of the images to display in the item in is normal, active and disabled states. This image must have been created previously, see L<Tk::Image>. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the image item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. An image item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item; it may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the image item is updated on the screen. =back =head1 LINE ITEMS Items of type B<line> appear on the display as one or more connected line segments or curves. Line items support coordinate indexing operations using the canvas methods: B<dchars, index, insert.> Lines are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createLine(x1, y1..., xn, yn, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1> through I<yn> give the coordinates for a series of two or more points that describe a series of connected line segments. After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for lines: =over 4 =item B<-arrow> =E<gt> I<where> Indicates whether or not arrowheads are to be drawn at one or both ends of the line. I<Where> must have one of the values B<none> (for no arrowheads), B<first> (for an arrowhead at the first point of the line), B<last> (for an arrowhead at the last point of the line), or B<both> (for arrowheads at both ends). This option defaults to B<none>. =item B<-arrowshape> =E<gt> I<shape> This option indicates how to draw arrowheads. The I<shape> argument must be a list with three elements, each specifying a distance in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. The first element of the list gives the distance along the line from the neck of the arrowhead to its tip. The second element gives the distance along the line from the trailing points of the arrowhead to the tip, and the third element gives the distance from the outside edge of the line to the trailing points. If this option isn't specified then Tk picks a ``reasonable'' shape. =item B<-capstyle> =E<gt> I<style> Specifies the ways in which caps are to be drawn at the endpoints of the line. I<Style> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetCapStyle> (B<butt>, B<projecting>, or B<round>). If this option isn't specified then it defaults to B<butt>. Where arrowheads are drawn the cap style is ignored. =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-activedash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, the active state, and the disabled state of a line item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option. B<-dashoffset> is ignored if there is no B<-dash> pattern. =item B<-fill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activefill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledfill> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to be used to fill the line in its normal, active, and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms acceptable to B<Tk_GetColor>. It may also be undef, in which case the line will be transparent. This option defaults to B<black>. =item B<-joinstyle> =E<gt> I<style> Specifies the ways in which joints are to be drawn at the vertices of the line. I<Style> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetCapStyle> (B<bevel>, B<miter>, or B<round>). If this option isn't specified then it defaults to B<miter>. If the line only contains two points then this option is irrelevant. =item B<-smooth> =E<gt> I<boolean> I<Boolean> must have one of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBoolean>. It indicates whether or not the line should be drawn as a curve. If so, the line is rendered as a set of parabolic splines: one spline is drawn for the first and second line segments, one for the second and third, and so on. Straight-line segments can be generated within a curve by duplicating the end-points of the desired line segment. =item B<-splinesteps> =E<gt> I<number> Specifies the degree of smoothness desired for curves: each spline will be approximated with I<number> line segments. This option is ignored unless the B<-smooth> option is true. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the line item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. A line item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it.

I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then filling is done in a solid fashion. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the line item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<lineWidth> =item B<-activewidth> =E<gt> I<lineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<lineWidth> Specifies the width of the line in its normal, active and disabled states. I<lineWidth> may be in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. Wide lines will be drawn centered on the path specified by the points. If this option isn't specified then it defaults to 1.0. =back =head1 OVAL ITEMS Items of type B<oval> appear as circular or oval regions on the display. Each oval may have an outline, a fill, or both. Ovals are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createOval(x1, y1, x2, y2, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2> give the coordinates of two diagonally opposite corners of a rectangular region enclosing the oval. The oval will include the top and left edges of the rectangle not the lower or right edges. If the region is square then the resulting oval is circular; otherwise it is elongated in shape. After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for ovals: =over 4 =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-activedash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, the active state, and the disabled state of an oval item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option.

I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. This option defaults to B<black>. If I<color> is undef then no outline will be drawn for the oval. =item B<-outlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activeoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to draw the outline of the oval in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then the outline is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the oval item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. An oval item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to fill the the oval in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-fill> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then filling is done in a solid fashion. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the oval item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-activewidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> Specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the oval, in its normal, active and disabled states. I<outlineWidth> specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the oval, in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. Wide outlines are drawn centered on the oval path defined by I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2>. This option defaults to 1.0. =back =head1 POLYGON ITEMS Items of type B<polygon> appear as polygonal or curved filled regions on the display. Polygon items support coordinate indexing operations using the canvas methods: B<dchars, index, insert.> Polygons are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createPolygon(x1, y1, ..., xn, yn, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1> through I<yn> specify the coordinates for three or more points that define a closed polygon. The first and last points may be the same; whether they are or not, Tk will draw the polygon as a closed polygon. After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for polygons: =over 4 =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-activedash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, the active state, and the disabled state of an polygon item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option. B<-dashoffset> is ignored if there is no B<-dash> pattern. =item B<-fill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activefill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledfill> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to be used to fill the polygon in its normal, active, and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms acceptable to B<Tk_GetColor>. If I<color> is undef then the polygon will be transparent. This option defaults to B<black>. =item B<-joinstyle> =E<gt> I<style> Specifies the ways in which joints are to be drawn at the vertices of the outline. I<Style> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetCapStyle> (B<bevel>, B<miter>, or B<round>). If this option isn't specified then it defaults to B<miter>. =item B<-outline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activeoutline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledoutline> =E<gt> I<color> This option specifies the color that should be used to draw the outline of the polygon in its normal, active and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. If I<color> is undef then no outline will be drawn for the polygon. This option defaults to undef (no outline). =item B<-outlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activeoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to draw the outline of the polygon in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then the outline is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-smooth> =E<gt> I<boolean> I<Boolean> must have one of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBoolean> It indicates whether or not the polygon should be drawn with a curved perimeter. If so, the outline of the polygon becomes a set of parabolic splines, one spline for the first and second line segments, one for the second and third, and so on. Straight-line segments can be generated in a smoothed polygon by duplicating the end-points of the desired line segment. =item B<-splinesteps> =E<gt> I<number> Specifies the degree of smoothness desired for curves: each spline will be approximated with I<number> line segments. This option is ignored unless the B<-smooth> option is true. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the polygon item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. A polygon item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to fill the the polygon in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then filling is done in a solid fashion. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the polygon item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-activewidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item Specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the polygon, in its normal, active and disabled states. I<outlineWidth> may be in any of the forms described in the COORDINATES section above. I<OutlineWidth> specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the polygon, in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. This option defaults to 1.0. Polygon items are different from other items such as rectangles, ovals and arcs in that interior points are considered to be ``inside'' a polygon (e.g. for purposes of the B<find closest> and B<find overlapping> methods) even if it is not filled. For most other item types, an interior point is considered to be inside the item only if the item is filled or if it has neither a fill nor an outline. If you would like an unfilled polygon whose interior points are not considered to be inside the polygon, use a line item instead. =back =head1 RECTANGLE ITEMS Items of type B<rectangle> appear as rectangular regions on the display. Each rectangle may have an outline, a fill, or both. Rectangles are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createRectangle(x1, y1, x2, y2, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2> give the coordinates of two diagonally opposite corners of the rectangle (the rectangle will include its upper and left edges but not its lower or right edges). After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for rectangles: =over 4 =item B<-dash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-activedash> =E<gt> I<pattern> =item B<-disableddash> =E<gt> I<pattern> This option specifies dash patterns for the normal state, the active state, and the disabled state of a rectangle item. I<pattern> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetDash>. If the dash options are omitted then the default is a solid outline. =item B<-dashoffset> =E<gt> I<offset> The starting I<offset> into the pattern provided by the B<-dash> option. B<-dashoffset> is ignored if there is no B<-dash> pattern. =item B<-fill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activefill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledfill> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to be used to fill the rectangle in its normal, active, and disabled states. I<Color> may be specified in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. If I<color> is undef (the default), then the rectangle will not be filled. =item B<-outline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activeoutline> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledoutline> =E<gt> I<color> This option specifies the color that should be used to draw the outline of the rectangle in its normal, active and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. This option defaults to B<black>. If I<color> is undef then no outline will be drawn for the rectangle. =item B<-outlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activeoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledoutlinestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to draw the outline of the rectangle in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then the outline is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the rectangle item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. A rectangle item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to fill the the rectangle in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If the B<-fill> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default), then filling is done in a solid fashion. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the rectangle item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-activewidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> =item B<-disabledwidth> =E<gt> I<outlineWidth> Specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the rectangle, in its normal, active and disabled states. I<OutlineWidth> specifies the width of the outline to be drawn around the rectangle, in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If the B<-outline> option hasn't been specified then this option has no effect. Wide outlines are drawn centered on the rectangular path defined by I<x1>, I<y1>, I<x2>, and I<y2>. This option defaults to 1.0. =back =head1 TEXT ITEMS A text item displays a string of characters on the screen in one or more lines. Text items support indexing and selection, along with the following text-related canvas methods: B<dchars>, B<focus>, B<icursor>, B<index>, B<insert>, B<select>. Text items are created with methods of the following form: $canvas->createText(x, y, ?option, value, option, value, ...?) The arguments I<x> and I<y> specify the coordinates of a point used to position the text on the display (see the options below for more information on how text is displayed). After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option>-I<value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> methods to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for text items: =over 4 =item B<-anchor> =E<gt> I<anchorPos> I<AnchorPos> tells how to position the text relative to the positioning point for the text; it may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetAnchor>. For example, if I<anchorPos> is B<center> then the text is centered on the point; if I<anchorPos> is B<n> then the text will be drawn such that the top center point of the rectangular region occupied by the text will be at the positioning point. This option defaults to B<center>. =item B<-fill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-activefill> =E<gt> I<color> =item B<-disabledfill> =E<gt> I<color> Specifies the color to be used to fill the text in its normal, active, and disabled states. I<Color> may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetColor>. If I<color> is undef then the text will be transparent. If this option isn't specified then it defaults to B<black>. =item B<-font> =E<gt> I<fontName> Specifies the font to use for the text item. I<FontName> may be any string acceptable to B<Tk_GetFontStruct>. If this option isn't specified, it defaults to a system-dependent font. =item B<-justify> =E<gt> I<how> Specifies how to justify the text within its bounding region. I<How> must be one of the values B<left>, B<right>, or B<center>. This option will only matter if the text is displayed as multiple lines. If the option is omitted, it defaults to B<left>. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the text item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. A text item may also be in the "active" state if the mouse is currently over it. Many options can take separate specifications in normal, active and disabled states such that the appearance of the item can be different in each state. =item B<-stipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-activestipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> =item B<-disabledstipple> =E<gt> I<bitmap> This option specifies stipple patterns that should be used to fill the the text in its normal, active and disabled states. I<bitmap> specifies the stipple pattern to use, in any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetBitmap>. If I<bitmap> is an empty string (the default) then the text is drawn in a solid fashion. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-text> =E<gt> I<string> I<String> specifies the characters to be displayed in the text item. Newline characters cause line breaks. The characters in the item may also be changed with the B<insert> and B<delete> methods. This option defaults to an empty string. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the text item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<lineLength> Specifies a maximum line length for the text, in any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If this option is zero (the default) the text is broken into lines only at newline characters. However, if this option is non-zero then any line that would be longer than I<lineLength> is broken just before a space character to make the line shorter than I<lineLength>; the space character is treated as if it were a newline character. =back =head1 WINDOW ITEMS Items of type B<window> cause a particular window to be displayed at a given position on the canvas. Window items are created with methods of the following form: S< >I<$canvas>->B<createWindow>(I<x, y>?, I<-option>=>I<value>, I<-option>=>I<value>, ...?) The arguments I<x> and I<y> specify the coordinates of a point used to position the window on the display (see the B<-anchor> option below for more information on how bitmaps are displayed). After the coordinates there may be any number of I<option-value> pairs, each of which sets one of the configuration options for the item. These same I<option>-I<value> pairs may be used in B<itemconfigure> method to change the item's configuration. The following options are supported for window items: =over 4 =item B<-anchor> =E<gt> I<anchorPos> I<AnchorPos> tells how to position the window relative to the positioning point for the item; it may have any of the forms accepted by B<Tk_GetAnchor>. For example, if I<anchorPos> is B<center> then the window is centered on the point; if I<anchorPos> is B<n> then the window will be drawn so that its top center point is at the positioning point. This option defaults to B<center>. =item B<-height> =E<gt> I<pixels> Specifies the height to assign to the item's window. I<Pixels> may have any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If this option isn't specified, or if it is specified as an empty string, then the window is given whatever height it requests internally. =item B<-state> =E<gt> I<state> Modifies the state of the window item where I<state> may be set to one of: normal, disabled, or hidden. =item B<-tags> =E<gt> I<tagList> Specifies a set of tags to apply to the item. I<TagList> consists of a list of tag names, which replace any existing tags for the item. I<TagList> may be an empty list. =item B<-updatecommand> =E<gt> I<command> Specifies a callback that is to be executed every time the window item is updated on the screen. =item B<-width> =E<gt> I<pixels> Specifies the width to assign to the item's window. I<Pixels> may have any of the forms described in the L<"COORDINATES"> section above. If this option isn't specified, or if it is specified as an empty string, then the window is given whatever width it requests internally. =item B<-window> =E<gt> I<$widget> Specifies the window to associate with this item. The window specified by $widget must either be a child of the canvas widget or a child of some ancestor of the canvas widget. I<PathName> may not refer to a top-level window. Note: due to restrictions in the ways that windows are managed, it is not possible to draw other graphical items (such as lines and images) on top of window items. A window item always obscures any graphics that overlap it, regardless of their order in the display list. =back =head1 APPLICATION-DEFINED ITEM TYPES It is possible for individual applications to define new item types for canvas widgets using C code. See the documentation for B<Tk_CreateItemType>. =head1 BINDINGS Canvas has default bindings to allow scrolling if necessary: <Up>, <Down>, <Left> and <Right> (and their <Control-*> counter parts). Further <Proir>, <Next>, <Home> and <End>. These bindings allow you to navigate the same way as in other widgets that can scroll. =head1 Perl/Tk Methods The following methods are added as perl code: =over 4 =item $canvas->get_corners Returns the bounding box in Canvas coordinates of the visible portion of the Canvas. (Written by Slaven Rezic.) =back =head1 CREDITS Tk's canvas widget is a blatant ripoff of ideas from Joel Bartlett's I<ezd> program. I<Ezd> provides structured graphics in a Scheme environment and preceded canvases by a year or two. Its simple mechanisms for placing and animating graphical objects inspired the functions of canvases. =head1 KEYWORDS canvas, widget =cut
