tkWin: Conveniently manipulate Tk windows
In svWidgets: Management of GUI Widgets, Windows, and Other GUI Resources

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also

These functions provide an easy way to create and manipulate Tk windows under R. Note that the corresponding winXXX() function also manipulate Tk windows the same way, but are capable of manipulating other windows as well (in the future). One should, thus, preferably use winXXX()!

tkWinAdd(name = "win1", parent = .TkRoot, title = NULL, pos = NULL,
    bind.delete = TRUE, ...)
tkWinDel(window)

`name`	name for a new Tk window.
`parent`	parent of this window.
`title`	title of the window.
`pos`	where to place the window. A string like '+XX+YY' where XX is the horizontal position in pixels, and YY is the vertical position. Using negative values place the window relative to the right or bottom side of the screen. Specifying `NULL` (by default) allows for automatic placement of the window.
`bind.delete`	do we automatically bind `tkWinDel()` to the window delete event (strongly advised for correct housekeeping)?
`...`	additional options to pass to the window creator.
`window`	the name of a 'tkguiWin' object.

Do not use these functions directly. Prefer the corresponding winXXX() functions that will call them if Tk windows are concerned.

tkWinAdd() returns the handle of the newly created window invisibly. tkMenuDel() returns invisibly TRUE if the window is found and deleted, FALSE otherwise.
