'\" Generated from file '/home/aku/Projects/Tcllib/tklib/embedded/man/files/modules/canvas/canvas_highlight\&.n' by tcllib/doctools with format 'nroff'
'\"
'\" 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 NAME
canvas::highlight \- Manage the highlighting of canvas items or item groups

.SH DESCRIPTION
This package provides utility commands for setting up and tearing down
of highlights for canvas items or item groups, the latter identified
by a tag\&.
.SH API
.TP
\fB::canvas::highlight\fR \fBon\fR \fIcanvas\fR \fItagOrId\fR \fIcmd\fR
This command sets up a general highlight, with the items of canvas
\fIcanvas\fR to highlight in this manner identified by \fItagOrId\fR
and the \fIcmd\fR prefix providing the implementation, i\&.e\&. the how to
perform the highlight\&.
.sp
The signature of the command prefix is described later, in
section \fBHighlight callback\fR\&.
.sp
The result of the command is the empty string\&.
.sp
Limitations:
.RS
.IP [1]
When a highlight is active no other highlight can be activated\&.
This means that nested highlights are not possible\&.
.IP [2]
The system may break if a highlight is removed from within its
highlight callback\&.
.RE
.TP
\fB::canvas::highlight\fR \fBoff\fR \fIcanvas\fR \fItagOrId\fR
This command removes any highlight set on the items of canvas
\fIcanvas\fR identified by \fItagOrId\fR\&.
.sp
The result of the command is the empty string\&.
.PP
.SS "HIGHLIGHT CALLBACK"
The highlight callback is a command prefix invoked in the following
two ways:
.TP
\fB{*}cmd\fR \fBon\fR \fIcanvas\fR \fIitem\fR
This form is invoked when the mouse has entered (one of) the item(s)
the highlight was set up for\&. The callback now has to perform any
reconfiguration necessary to highlight the item (group)\&.
.sp
The result of the command can be anything\&. It is stored by the
system as client information and passed unchanged to the un-highlight
callback for its use\&. In this manner the highlight callback is able to
maintain custom state from highlighting to un-highlighting\&.
.sp
Note that the callback does not have to maintain state, nor
does it have to actually reconfigure the item (group)\&. In the latter
case the callback simply serves as easy enter/leave notification\&.
.TP
\fB{*}cmd\fR \fBoff\fR \fIcanvas\fR \fIclientdata\fR
This form is invoked when the mouse has left (one of) the item(s) of
the currently active the highlight\&. The callback now has to perform
any reconfiguration necessary to un-highlight the item (group)\&.
.sp
The result of the command must be a boolean value with the
usual value to be \fBtrue\fR\&. By returning \fBfalse\fR instead the
callback can veto the removal of the highlight\&.
