ttk::spinbox — Selecting text field widget
ttk::spinbox pathName ?options?
A ttk::spinbox widget is a ttk::entry widget with built-in up
and down buttons that are used to either modify a numeric value or
to select among a set of values. The widget implements all the
features of the ttk::entry widget including
support of the -textvariable option to link the value
displayed by the widget to a Tcl variable.

- This must be a Tcl list of values. If this option is set then
this will override any range set using the -from, -to
and -increment options. The widget will instead use the
values specified beginning with the first value.

around the values of data in the widget.
See the ttk::entry
manual for information about indexing characters.
See the ttk::entry
manual for information about using the -validate and
-validatecommand options.
The following subcommands are possible for spinbox widgets in
addition to the commands described for the ttk::entry widget:
- pathName get
- Returns the spinbox's current value.
- pathName set
value
- Set the spinbox string to value. If a -format
option has been configured then this format will be applied. If
formatting fails or is not set or the -values option has
been used then the value is set directly.
The spinbox widget generates a <<Increment>>
virtual event when the user presses <Up>, and a
<<Decrement>> virtual event when the user
presses <Down>.
The class name for a ttk::spinbox is TSpinbox.
Dynamic states: active, disabled, focus, readonly.
TSpinbox styling options configurable with ttk::style are:
-arrowcolor color
-arrowsize amount
-background color
- For backwards compatibility, when using the aqua theme (for
macOS), this option behaves as an alias for the
-fieldbackground provided that no value is specified for
-fieldbackground. Otherwise it is ignored.
-bordercolor color
-darkcolor color
-fieldbackground color
-foreground color
-insertcolor color
-insertwidth amount
-lightcolor color
-padding padding
-selectbackground color
-selectforeground color
Some options are only available for specific themes.
See the ttk::style
manual page for information on how to configure ttk styles.
