Tickit::Widget::Placegrid - a placeholder grid display
Tickit::Widget::Placegrid
This class provides a widget which displays a simple grid pattern in its display area, and prints the size of the area in its centre.
It is intended as a placeholder for other widget code while applications are under development. It easily allows a container to have a child that can take any size, and will keep its window area painted (so avoiding bugs caused by "empty" containers that do not clear unused child areas).
The default style pen is used as the widget pen. The following style pen prefixes are also used:
