GetPartEntries

buttonBar:GetPartEntries()

Returns the part entries of all icons in the button bar.

return value

A frame with the following two slots, fixed and mobile. Both of these slots contain an array of part entries. The part entries in fixed cannot be moved by dragging. Similarly, the part entries in mobile can be moved. The ordering of these arrays is important; it determines the order of the icons in the button bar.

DISCUSSION

You must not modify the part entries in any way. To obtain information from a part entry, use the Extras Drawer *GetPartEntryData method.

To send this method use code such as the following:

 local bb := GetRoot().Buttons;

 if (bb.soft) then bb:GetPartEntries()
