-
-This section contains some hints that might be useful when working
-with SALOME GUI input widgets.
-
-<h2>Spin boxes</h2>
-
-This type of widgets is used for numeric (integer or floating-point)
-data input. Spin boxes are used in standard \b SALOME modules if the
-input value has a clearly defined input range (and precision in
-case of a floating-point value).
-
-Input precision has a specific semantics in \b SALOME floating-point
-spin boxes:
-- Positive precision value means that a number in the fixed-point format
-(corresponding to the "f" format specifier for C printf function) is
-expected. Positive precision value is the maximum allowed number of
-digits after the decimal separator.
-- Negative precision value means that a number either in the fixed-point
-or the scientific (exponetial) format is expected. This is similar to the
-behavior of the "g" format specifier for C printf function. Negative
-precision value is the maximum allowed number of significant digits in
-mantissa (note that one digit is always before the decimal separator).
-
-To make the user aware of an input value constraints applied by some
-\b SALOME operations, the following basic capabilties are provided by
-spin boxes:
-- The text input manually in a spin box by the user is checked to be a
-number of valid type (integer or floating-point).
-- The text is converted to a number and checked to be within the valid
-range.
-- Additionally, for floating-point data the input text is checked
-against the precision rules described above.
-
-If the input text in a spin box does not meet the
-constraints, the user is shown a message in a
-tooltip near the spin box just as he types in it. The tooltip contains
-information about the valid data range. For a floating-point input, the
-tooltip also contains information about the expected precision.
-
-In standard \b SALOME modules the precision value can be adjusted through
-\ref setting_preferences_page "user preferences" of the correspodning modules, and the tooltip contains a
-reference to the corresponding parameter in the preferences.
-
-On-line documentation for each standard SALOME module contains the
-list of user preferences that can be used for tuning floating-point
-precision for different types of input quantities.
-
-<h2>Spin boxes and SALOME Notebook</h2>
-
-Apart from the numeric input, spin boxes in some \b SALOME modules accept
-the names of \b Notebook variables (see \ref using_notebook "Using Notebook"
-page for more details about \b Notebook).
-
-If a spin box accepts variable names, then it is
-additionally checked whether the manually input text represents a variable name. Variable
-names should comply with the common naming rules for \b Python variables.
-If the input is neither a valid number nor a variable name,
-the tooltip informs the user that variable names are also acceptable in this spin box.
