# Tix Demostration Program
#
# This sample program is structured in such a way so that it can be
# executed from the Tix demo program "tixwidgets": it must have a
# procedure called "RunSample". It should also have the "if" statment
# at the end of this file so that it can be run as a standalone
# program.
# This file demonstrates the use of the tixBalloon widget, which provides
# a interesting way to give help tips about elements in your user interface.
# Your can display the help message in a "balloon" and a status bar widget.

status = Tix.Label(w, width=40, relief=Tix.SUNKEN, bd=1)

# Create two mysterious widgets that need balloon help
button1 = Tix.Button(w, text='Something Unexpected',
command=lambda w=w: w.destroy())
button2 = Tix.Button(w, text='Something Else Unexpected')
button2['command'] = lambda w=button2: w.destroy()
button1.pack(side=Tix.TOP, expand=1)
button2.pack(side=Tix.TOP, expand=1)
# Create the balloon widget and associate it with the widgets that we want
# to provide tips for:

b.bind_widget(button1, balloonmsg='Close Window',
statusmsg='Press this button to close this window')
