  <h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>

  <p>The BWidget package is a library extension for Tcl/Tk versions 8.1.1 or
  higher, written in pure Tcl/Tk code.&nbsp; Its download location is</p>

  <p>Tablelist supports interactive cell editing with the aid of the Entry,
  SpinBox, and ComboBox widgets from the BWidget package.&nbsp; The steps
  needed for using one of these widgets for editing the cells of a given column
  are as follows:</p>

  <ol>
    <li>Register the desired widget for interactive cell editing by invoking
    one of the commands described in this reference page.</li>

    <li class="tm">Use the tablelist widget's <code><b><a href=
    "tablelistWidget.html#columnconfigure">columnconfigure</a></b></code>
    subcommand to set the given column's <code><b><a href=
    "tablelistWidget.html#col_editable">-editable</a></b></code> option to true
    and its <code><b><a href=
    "tablelistWidget.html#col_editwindow">-editwindow</a></b></code> option to
    the value returned by the command mentioned above.&nbsp; (These options are
    supported at cell level, too, with the aid of the <code><b><a href=
    "tablelistWidget.html#cellconfigure">cellconfigure</a></b></code>
    subcommand.)</li>
  </ol>

  <p><b>REMARK:</b>&nbsp; The temporary embedded BWidget widget used for
  interactive cell editing will appear properly scaled, according to the
  display's DPI scaling level, given by the variable
  <code><b>tablelist::scalingpct</b></code>.</p>
