#include
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
widget is a composite widget that packs a
.Xr AG_Textbox 3
widget left to a
.Xr AG_Button 3 ,
which causes a
.Xr AG_Tlist 3
to popup when pressed.
The tlist disappears when an option is selected, and is directly accessed
as the
.Va list
member of the
.Nm
structure.

.Sh INITIALIZATION
.nr nS 1
.Ft "AG_Combo *"
.Fn AG_ComboNew "AG_Widget *parent" "Uint flags" "const char *label"
.Pp
.Ft "void"
.Fn AG_ComboSizeHint "AG_Combo *combo" "const char *text" "int nitems"
.Pp
.Ft "void"
.Fn AG_ComboSizeHintPixels "AG_Combo *combo" "int w" "int h"
.Pp
.nr nS 0
The
.Fn AG_ComboNew
function allocates, initializes, and attaches a new
.Nm
widget.
The
.Fa label
argument defines the text to be displayed at the left of the textbox.
Acceptable
.Fa flags
include:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width "AG_COMBO_SCROLLTOSEL "
.It AG_COMBO_POLL
List contents are dynamic (pass the
.Dv AG_TLIST_POLL
flag to the
.Va tlist ) .
.It AG_COMBO_TREE
List is a tree display (pass the
.Dv AG_TLIST_TREE
flag to the
.Va tlist ) .
.It AG_COMBO_ANY_TEXT

.El
.Pp
The
.Fn AG_ComboSizeHint
function arranges for the
.Xr AG_Tlist 3
widget displayed on popup to request a size large enough to display the given
number of items.
The
.Fn AG_ComboSizeHintPixels
variant specifies the size of the list in pixels.
.Sh ITEM SELECTION
.nr nS 1
.Ft void
.Fn AG_ComboSelect "AG_Combo *combo" "AG_TlistItem *item"
.Pp
.Ft "AG_TlistItem *"
.Fn AG_ComboSelectPointer "AG_Combo *combo" "void *ptr"
.Pp
.Ft "AG_TlistItem *"
.Fn AG_ComboSelectText "AG_Combo *combo" "const char *text"
.Pp
.nr nS 0
The
.Fn AG_ComboSelect
function sets the selection flag on the given
.Fa item .
.Pp
The
.Fn AG_ComboSelectPointer
function selects the first item with a user pointer value matching
.Fa ptr .
Similarly,
.Fn AG_ComboSelectText
selects the first item with a text string equal to
.Fa text .
.Pp
If the
.Dv AG_COMBO_POLL
option is set, both
.Fn AG_ComboSelectPointer
and
.Fn AG_ComboSelectText
will raise a
.Sq tlist-poll
event prior to making the selection.

widget generates the following events:
