See the "options" manual entry for details on the
    standard options.










Name:	bitmapforeground
Class:	Foreground
Command-Line Switch:	-bitmapforeground



  

  
Configures the foreground color of the bitmap.






Name:	command
Class:	Command
Command-Line Switch:	-command



  

  
Associate a command with the extbutton. Simulates a Tk button's -command
      option. Invoked by either <1> events or by explicitly calling the
      public invoke() method.






Name:   defaultring
Class:  DefaultRing
Command-Line Switch:    -defaultring



  

  
Boolean describing whether the extbutton displays its default ring given
      in any of the forms acceptable to Tcl_GetBoolean. The default is
      false.






Name:   defaultringpad
Class:  Pad
Command-Line Switch:    -defaultringpad



  

  
Specifies the amount of space to be allocated to the indentation of the
      default ring ring given in any of the forms acceptable to
      Tcl_GetPixels. The option has no effect if the defaultring option
      is set to false. The default is 4 pixels.






Name:   imagePos
Class:  Position
Command-Line Switch:    -imagepos



  

  
Specifies the image position relative to the message text: n,
      ne, nw, s, se, sw, w, wn,
      ws, e, en, or es. The default is w.






Name:	ringBackground
Class:	Background
Command-Line Switch:	-ringbackground



  

  
Configures the background color of the default ring frame (if -defaultring
      is set to boolean true).
















The extbutton extends the behavior of the atomic Tk button
    by allowing text and an image or bitmap to coexist. The user may use the
    -image or -bitmap options to specify an image as well as the -imagepos
    option to specify image position relative to the text. Note that the
    extbutton is not intended to be used without an image/bitmap. There will be
    an emtpy space next to the text if no image/bitmap is specified.










The iwidgets::extbutton 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 ...?














Each of the following methods are inherited from itk::Archetype.
    See that man page for details.




pathName cget
pathName component
pathName config
pathName configure















  

  
Evaluates the command fragment associated with the -command option.

  

  
Simulates the Tk button's flash command.
