.IX Title "LABFRAME 1"
.TH LABFRAME 1 "2000-12-30" "perl v5.8.0" "User Contributed Perl Documentation"
.SH "NAME"
Tk::LabFrame \- labeled frame.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\ \fBuse Tk::LabFrame;\fR
.PP
\&\ \fI$f\fR = \fI$parent\fR\->\fBLabFrame\fR(?\fB\-label\fR=>\fItext\fR,
\&\fB\-labelside\fR=>\fIwhere\fR, ...?);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBLabFrame\fR is exactly like \fBFrame\fR and additionaly allows to
add a label to the frame.
.SH "WIDGET-OPTIONS"
.IX Header "WIDGET-OPTIONS"
\&\fBLabFrame\fR supports the same options as the
Frame widget.
.PP
Additional options of \fBLabFrame\fR are:
.IP "\fB\-label\fR => \fItext\fR" 4
.IX Item "-label => text"
The text of the label to be placed with the Frame.
.IP "\fB\-labelside\fR => \fIwhere\fR" 4
.IX Item "-labelside => where"
\&\fIWhere\fR can be one of \fBleft\fR, \fBright\fR, \fBtop\fR, \fBbottom\fR or \fBacrosstop\fR.
The first four work as might be expected and place the label to the
left, right, above or below the frame respectively. The \fBacrosstop\fR
creates a grooved frame around the central frame and puts the label
near the northwest corner such that it appears to \*(L"overwrite\*(R" the
groove.
.SH "EXAMPLE"
.IX Header "EXAMPLE"
Run the following test program to see this in action:
.PP
.Vb 4

\&    use Tk;
\&    require Tk::LabFrame;
\&    require Tk::LabEntry;

\&    my $mw = Tk::MainWindow->new;
\&    my $f = $mw->LabFrame(-label => "This is a label",
\&                           -labelside => "acrosstop");
\&    $f->LabEntry(-label => "Testing", -textvariable => \e$test)->pack;
\&    $f->pack;
\&    Tk::MainLoop;
.Ve
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Perhaps \fBLabFrame\fR should be subsumed within the generic pTk
labeled widget mechanism.
