~ Abstract
This TIP is to allow custom sizing of menubutton indicators using
'''-indwidth''' and '''-indheight''' as options.
~ Rationale
Currently there is no way to vary the size of the indicator for a classic Unix
menubutton widget. Adding the ability to control this via configuration
options will give the coder more control over a GUI's appearance for when such
fine control is required.
~ Specification
The following options are proposed to be added to the '''::menubutton'''
widget:
> The '''-indwidth''' option allows the specification of the width of the
indicator in 10ths of a mm (will be converted to an integer number of pixels).
> The '''-indheight''' option allows the specification of the height of the
indicator in 10ths of a mm (will be converted to an integer number of pixels).
~ Implementation
A patch exists in SourceForge (Feature Request 2996760
[https://sourceforge.net/support/tracker.php?aid=2996760]).
