Tab attributes
backgroundColor (String)
The backgroundColor attribute is the name of the RGB color for the background of the part.
backgroundGraphicsDescriptor
The backgroundGraphicsDescriptor attribute is an icon, bitmap, or image that is used for the background of the part. The labelType attribute must be an icon, bitmap, or image or the backgroundGraphicsDescriptor attribute is ignored.
borderWidth (Integer)
The borderWidth attribute is the width of the border, specified in pixels, that surrounds the part on all four sides. A width of zero means that a border does not show.
On some platforms, the border width is limited to 1 pixel and any nonzero value is set to 1.
buttonFontName (String)
The buttonFontName attribute is the font used for the buttons in the part. If a font is not specified, the font specified on the textFontName attribute is used for the buttons in the part.
dragDropSpec (AbtDragDropSpec)
enabled (Boolean)
The enabled attribute specifies whether or not the part is available for selection. If true, the part's contents are available for selection.
foregroundColor (String)
The foregroundColor attribute is the name of the RGB color for the foreground of the part.
fractionBase (Integer)
The fractionBase attribute is the denominator used in the fraction to calculate the percentage for the proportional spacing. The default value is 100.
framingSpec (AbtViewAttachmentConstraint)
The framingSpec attribute represents the values specified for the edge specifications of the part. The edge specifications determine the width, height, and position of the part.
graphicsDescriptor (AbtGraphicsDescriptor)
The graphicsDescriptor attribute is an icon, bitmap, or image that is used instead of text for the label. The labelType attribute must be XmPIXMAP or the graphicsDescriptor attribute is ignored.
helpFile (String)
The helpFile attribute is the name of the help file associated with the part.
helpKeysId (String)
The helpKeysId attribute is the ID of the keys help associated with the part. The ID can be a string or an integer value.
The ID must exist in the help file associated with the part.
helpTitle (String)
The helpTitle attribute is the title of the help window associated with the part.
helpTopicId (String)
The helpTopicId attribute is the ID of the help topic associated with the part. The ID can be a string or an integer value.
The ID must exist in the help file associated with the part.
horizontalSpacing (Integer)
The horizontalSpacing attribute is the default horizontal space between the part and its children. The default value is 0.
hoverHelpEnabled
A hoverHelpEnabled event signals the part to provide hover help for the part and all of its children.
labelFontName (String)
The labelFontName attribute is the font used for the labels of the part. If a font is not specified, the font specified on the textFontName attribute is used.
labelString (String)
The labelString attribute is the label of the part in string form.
For example, to dynamically display the string format of a number value, do the following:
a. Define the label with the Number data type.
b. Assign a value to the label.
c. Connect the labelString attribute to this label.
mappedWhenManaged (Boolean)
The mappedWhenManaged attribute specifies whether the part should be shown. If the part is currently shown, setting this attribute to false will hide the part. If the part is currently hidden, setting this attribute to true will show the part, if the parent part is shown.
marginHeight (Integer)
The marginHeight attribute is the amount of vertical space between the part and its children.
marginWidth (Integer)
The marginWidth attribute is the amount of horizontal space between the part and its children that are not attached.
menu (AbtCwMenuView)
The menu attribute is the menu part to use as the part's menu bar or pop-up menu.
resizePolicy (Integer)
The resizePolicy attribute specifies how the part is to be sized as children are added, removed, and otherwise manipulated in the part. The rule can be set using the constant values from the CwConstants pool dictionary as follows:
XmRESIZEANY
The part's horizontal and vertical size can be made larger or smaller.
XmRESIZEGROW
The part's horizontal and vertical size can be made larger but not smaller.
XmRESIZENONE
The part cannot be resized.
rubberPositioning (Boolean)
The rubberPositioning attribute specifies whether child parts have their positions converted to proportional attachments.
If rubberPositioning is set to true, all children parts with no attachments on their top, bottom, left, or right, have their initial top and left positions converted to proportional attachments. If rubberPositioning is set to false, then the initial top and left positions are attached to the parent.
self (<className>)
tabGroup (Boolean)
The tabGroup attribute specifies whether or not the part is included as a tab stop so users can use the Tab and Backtab keys to access the part.
textFontName (String)
The textFontName attribute is the font used for the child text parts of the part. If you do not specify a font using the buttonFontName or labelFontName attributes, the font specified on the textFontName attribute is used.
toolTipText
The toolTipText attribute specifies the text that is displayed when the mouse pointer is positioned over the control. (This capability is similar to the hover help capability provided by other VA Smalltalk parts.)
traversalOn (Boolean)
The traversalOn attribute specifies whether users can access the part using the cursor movement keys. If the part is specified as a tab stop by using the tabGroup attribute, users also can use the Tab and Backtab keys to access the part.
verticalSpacing (Integer)
The verticalSpacing attribute is the default vertical space between the part and its children.
wallpaperStyle (Integer)
The wallpaperStyle attribute specifies how you want the wallpaper images displayed. Possible values are:
o XmNORMAL
o XmTILED
o XmSCALED
