listbox 'relief' property

[ramsunder]

I had taken a configure output of a TK listbox...a relevant abstract of output is :

"............ {-highlightthickness highlightThickness HighlightThickness 1 0} {-relief relief Relief sunken raised} ............."


Now I want to change the valus for Relief property.

I want it to be {-relief relief Relief flat raised}

Can any one help me how to achive this.

I had tried option add command but it changes only last entry.

Thanks in advance.

I suppose the primary question I have is why do you feel you need to change the next-to-last value reported? In the lists of configuration option information returned by a widget's configure operation, the next-to-last element is simply the widget's built-in default value for the option. The last value is the current value of the option, which is what really affects the widget's appearance and/or behavior. So when:

[tt].lbox configure -relief[/tt]

returns

[tt]-relief relief Relief flat raised[/tt]

the listbox is going to appear raised, and the [tt]flat[/tt] value has no effect on the appearance.

Question to your answer, why I "need to change the next-to-last value reported"

Since in older version of TK say 3.6 and 4.0 configure command for same code of listbox gives me
"-relief relief Relief flat raised"

and tk8.4 give
"-relief relief Relief sunken raised"

And, it really changes the visual effect of listbox over frame (to which it is packed).

I hope I made it myself clear. Your help will be appreciated.
