26 | <p> | |
27 | This class creates a megawidget contained within a Tkinter.Frame | |
28 | window. The class acts as the base class for megawidgets that are | |
29 | not contained in their own toplevel window, such as <a href="ButtonBox.html">Pmw.ButtonBox</a> and | |
30 | <a href="ComboBox.html">Pmw.ComboBox</a>. It creates a Tkinter.Frame component, named <strong>hull</strong>, | |
31 | to act as the container of the megawidget. The window class name | |
32 | for the <strong>hull</strong> widget is set to the most-specific class name for | |
33 | the megawidget. Derived classes specialise this class by | |
34 | creating other widget components as children of the <strong>hull</strong> widget.</p> | |

46 | This acts as the body for the entire megawidget. Other components | |
47 | are created as children of the hull to further specialise this | |
48 | class. By default, this component is a Tkinter.Frame.</p> | |

55 | This megawidget has no methods of its own. | |
56 | For a description of its inherited methods, see the | |
57 | manual for its base class | |
58 | <strong><a href="MegaArchetype.html#methods">Pmw.MegaArchetype</a></strong>. | |
59 | In addition, methods from the | |
60 | <strong>Tkinter.Frame</strong> class | |
61 | are forwarded by this megawidget to the | |
62 | <strong>hull</strong> component. | |
