.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.
|
||||
.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.
|
||||
.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.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
These procedures take as argument a specification of distance on
|
||||
the screen (\fIobjPtr\fR or \fIstring\fR) and compute the
|
||||
corresponding distance either in integer pixels or floating-point millimeters.
|
||||
In either case,
|
||||
\fIobjPtr\fR or \fIstring\fR
|
||||
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
|
||||
\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 is not 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 is not 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.
