subobjects-with-partners

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: widget

Returns a list of subobjects of object that may have "partners" that are associated with them in some way. For example, the subobjects-with-partners of a tab-control is the tab-control's range, since that is a list of tabs each of which has a set of "partners" consisting of the components on that tab.

In the built-in methods, only the tab-control method returns true.

A subobjects-with-partners method could be added to a custom widget in order to customize its behavior on forms.

The partners mechanism is used when manipulating components on a form in order to find components that may be affected when one of its "partners" is modified.
