67 | The <tt class="module">Tix</tt> (Tk Interface Extension) module provides an | |
68 | additional rich set of widgets. Although the standard Tk library has | |
69 | many useful widgets, they are far from complete. The <tt class="module">Tix</tt> | |
70 | library provides most of the commonly needed widgets that are missing | |
71 | from standard Tk: <tt class="class">HList</tt>, <tt class="class">ComboBox</tt>, <tt class="class">Control</tt> | |
72 | (a.k.a. SpinBox) and an assortment of scrollable widgets. <tt class="module">Tix</tt> | |
73 | also includes many more widgets that are generally useful in a wide | |
74 | range of applications: <tt class="class">NoteBook</tt>, <tt class="class">FileEntry</tt>, | |
75 | <tt class="class">PanedWindow</tt>, etc; there are more than 40 of them. | |
76 | ||
77 | <P> | |
78 | With all these new widgets, you can introduce new interaction | |
79 | techniques into applications, creating more useful and more intuitive | |
80 | user interfaces. You can design your application by choosing the most | |
81 | appropriate widgets to match the special needs of your application and | |
82 | users. | |
