Tiler(3pm)
π Tk::Tiler π
okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's about a Perl module called Tk::Tiler β a scrollable frame that lines up all your little sub-widgets in rows. no cap, it's lowkey iconic. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
Tk::Tiler β it's a scrollable frame with sub-widgets arranged into rows. that's the whole vibe. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
here's the moment you've been waiting for, the actual code, copy it exactly bestie:
use Tk::Tiler;
my $tl = $parent->Scrolled('Tiler', -columns => n, -rows => n);
my $a = $tl->Xxxxx(...);
my $b = $tl->Xxxxx(...);
my $c = $tl->Xxxxx(...);
$tl->Manage($a,$b,$c);
likeβ¦ you make a scrolled Tiler, you build some widgets off it, and then you Manage them. that's the whole arc. π
π DESCRIPTION π
so Tiler is derived from Tk::Frame β it's a geometry managing widget, which basically means its whole job is accepting widgets for you to manage and then, like, placing them. it drops your widgets into a grid and squeezes in as many widgets as possible in a row. efficiency queen. π₯
here's the tea tho: all the "slots" in the grid are the same size, and that size is determined by the largest managed widget. so whichever widget is the biggest main character sets the tone for everybody else. the way that one widget decides the whole layoutβ¦ it's giving ruler energy ngl. π
and the grid? it may be scrolled vertically. up and down, up and down. π¦
fr fr, that's it. short page, huge impact. iykyk. π
and that's the whole page bestie!! this lil baddie came to you courtesy of perl v5.40.1, dated 2025-04-13 β shoutout to that exact moment in time, we love her, no notes. π«Άβ¨πΈ
mwah, go tile something gorgeous. π π
