Syntax

Description

Options

-topname

This option specifies the name of the highest widget in the hierarchy to display. This is typically used to limit the display to a subset of the tree. The default is Object.

-variable

This option indicates that the widget variable names (as declared in header files) should be displayed in the nodes rather than the widget class name. This is sometimes useful to distinguish widget classes that share the same name (such as Text).

-vertical

This option indicates that the tree should be displayed top to bottom rather than left to right.

Show Variable Names

This entry causes the node labels to be set to the variable names used to declare the corresponding widget class. This operation may also be performed with the SetLabelType (variable) translation.

Show Class Names

This entry causes the node labels to be set to the class names used when specifying resources. This operation may also be performed with the SetLabelType (class) translation.

Layout Horizontal

This entry causes the tree to be laid out from left to right. This operation may also be performed with the SetOrientation(West) translation.

Layout Vertical

This entry causes the tree to be laid out from top to bottom. This operation may also be performed with the SetOrientation(North) translation.

Show Resource Boxes

This entry expands the selected nodes (see next section) to show the new widget and constraint resources. This operation may also be performed with the Resources(on) translation.

Hide Resource Boxes

This entry removes the resource displays from the selected nodes (usually to conserve space). This operation may also be performed with the Resources(off) translation.

Select Ancestors

This entry recursively selects all parents of all selected nodes. This operation may also be performed with the Select(ancestors) translation.

Select Children

This entry selects the immediate children of all selected nodes. This operation may also be performed with the Select(children) translation.

Select Descendants

This entry recursively selects all children of all selected nodes. This operation may also be performed with the Select(descendants) translation.
