Category: 66. Aqua Window Operations Group: obsolete: 8.4.14 Status: Closed Resolution: Accepted Priority: 6 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Kevin Walzer (wordtech) Summary: ::tk::mac::ShowPreferences documentation Initial Comment: A documentation bug... Updated info on the consequences of ::tk::mac::ShowPreferences needs to be added to the Apple Menu section of the Menu manual page -- ie, that this command is now used instead of a menu item to handle the 'Preferences' entry in the Apple Menu on the Mac OS X platform. This is especially needed since this is apparently a new change in 8.4.14, won't appear in older manual pages, is bound to catch a lot of people out and cause many similar queries unless mentioned explicitly.

Steffen (das) Date: 2007-07-12 12:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=90580 Originator: NO as explained on c.l.t, this has absolutely nothing to do with menus, [::tk::mac::ShowPreferences] is an apple event handler for the 'prefs' event (that could be replaced with your own handler using e.g. tclAE), it has been present in tkMacOSXHLEvents.c from the start (i.e. since the intial TkAqua port committed 2001-10-15), c.f http://rutherglen.ics.mq.edu.au/fisheye/browse/Tk/tk/macosx/tkMacOSXHLEvents.c?r=1.1.2.1 nothing new in 8.4.14 about it... I agree that core documentation is missing about MacOSX specific features like this (nothing new about this either, such docs have been missing since the Tk Mac Classic days), some docs are available on the wiki: http://wiki.tcl.tk/12987 please feel free to contribute to this, or even better have a go at reformatting it in nroff format and submit it for inclusion in the tk manpages in some form... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=112997&aid=1752151&group_id=12997 |
