| '\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk |
| '\" manual entries. |
| '\" |
| '\" .AP type name in/out ?indent? |
| '\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure. |
| '\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out", |
| '\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg, |
| '\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be |
| '\" needed; use .AS below instead) |
| '\" |
| '\" .AS ?type? ?name? |
| '\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and |
| '\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed |
| '\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BS |
| '\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be |
| '\" enclosed in one large box. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BE |
| '\" End of box enclosure. |
| '\" |
| '\" .CS |
| '\" Begin code excerpt. |
| '\" |
| '\" .CE |
| '\" End code excerpt. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VS ?version? ?br? |
| '\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts |
| '\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording |
| '\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be |
| '\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument |
| '\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VE |
| '\" End of vertical sidebar. |
| '\" |
| '\" .DS |
| '\" Begin an indented unfilled display. |
| '\" |
| '\" .DE |
| '\" End of indented unfilled display. |
| '\" |
| '\" .SO |
| '\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The |
| '\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated |
| '\" by tabs. |
| '\" |
| '\" .SE |
| '\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget. |
| '\" |
| '\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass |
| '\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the |
| '\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives |
| '\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives |
| '\" the option's class in the option database. |
| '\" |
| '\" .UL arg1 arg2 |
| '\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally. |

| .SH ARGUMENTS |
| .AS "Tcl_Interp" *joinPtr |
| .AP Tcl_Interp *interp in |
| Interpreter to use for error reporting. |
| .AP Tk_Window tkwin in |
| Window whose screen geometry determines the conversion between absolute |
| units and pixels. |
| .VS 8.1 br |
| .AP Tcl_Obj *objPtr in/out |
| String value specifies a distance on the screen; |
| internal rep will be modified to cache converted distance. |
| .AP "CONST char" *string in |
| Same as \fIobjPtr\fR except specification of distance is passed as |
| a string. |
| .VE |
| .AP int *intPtr out |
| Pointer to location in which to store converted distance in pixels. |
| .AP double *doublePtr out |
| Pointer to location in which to store converted distance in millimeters. |
| .BE |
| |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| These procedures take as argument a specification of distance on |
| .VS 8.1 |
| the screen (\fIobjPtr\fR or \fIstring\fR) and compute the |
| .VE |
| corresponding distance either in integer pixels or floating-point millimeters. |
| In either case, |
| .VS 8.1 |
| \fIobjPtr\fR or \fIstring\fR |
| .VE |
| specifies a screen distance as a |
| floating-point number followed by one of the following characters |
| that indicates units: |
| .TP |
| <none> |
| The number specifies a distance in pixels. |
| .TP |
| \fBc\fR |
| The number specifies a distance in centimeters on the screen. |
| .TP |
| \fBi\fR |
| The number specifies a distance in inches on the screen. |
| .TP |
| \fBm\fR |
| The number specifies a distance in millimeters on the screen. |
| .TP |
| \fBp\fR |
| The number specifies a distance in printer's points (1/72 inch) |
| on the screen. |
| .PP |
| .VS 8.1 |
| \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR converts the value of \fIobjPtr\fR to the |
| nearest even number of pixels and stores that value at \fI*intPtr\fR. |
| It returns \fBTCL_OK\fR under normal circumstances. |
| If an error occurs (e.g. \fIobjPtr\fR contains a number followed |
| by a character that isn't one of the ones above) then |
| \fBTCL_ERROR\fR is returned and an error message is left |
| in \fIinterp\fR's result if \fIinterp\fR isn't NULL. |
| \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR caches information about the return |
| value in \fIobjPtr\fR, which speeds up future calls to |
| \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR with the same \fIobjPtr\fR. |
| .PP |
| \fBTk_GetPixels\fR is identical to \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR except |
| that the screen distance is specified with a string instead |
| of an object. This prevents \fBTk_GetPixels\fR from caching the |
| return value, so \fBTk_GetAnchor\fR is less efficient than |
| \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR. |
| .PP |
| \fBTk_GetMMFromObj\fR and \fBTk_GetScreenMM\fR are similar to |
| \fBTk_GetPixelsFromObj\fR and \fBTk_GetPixels\fR (respectively) except |
| that they convert the screen distance to millimeters and |
| store a double-precision floating-point result at \fI*doublePtr\fR. |
