accessing
o  autoHideScrollBars
return the value of the instance variable 'autoHideScrollBars' (automatically generated)

o  autoHideScrollBars: aBooleanOrNil
set the value of the instance variable 'autoHideScrollBars' (automatically generated)

o  bounds
return bounds

o  hasHorizontalScrollBar: aBoolean

o  hasVerticalScrollBar

o  hasVerticalScrollBar: aBoolean

o  icon
return the value of the instance variable 'icon' (automatically generated)

o  icon: something
set the value of the instance variable 'icon' (automatically generated)

o  iconLabel
return the value of the instance variable 'iconLabel' (automatically generated)

o  iconLabel: something
set the value of the instance variable 'iconLabel' (automatically generated)

o  label
return label

o  label: something
set label

o  max
return max

o  max: something
set max

o  maxX
return max x

o  maxX: n
set max x

o  maxY
return max y

o  maxY: n
set max y

o  menu
return the value of the instance variable 'menu' (automatically generated)

o  menu: something
set the value of the instance variable 'menu' (automatically generated)

o  menuPerformer

o  min
return min

o  min: something
set min

o  minX
return min x

o  minX: n
set min x

o  minY
return min y

o  minY: n
set min y

o  miniScrollerHorizontal

o  miniScrollerHorizontal: aBoolean

o  miniScrollerVertical

o  miniScrollerVertical: aBoolean

o  name: something
set label

o  performer
return the value of the instance variable 'performer' (automatically generated)

o  performer: something
set the value of the instance variable 'performer' (automatically generated)

o  returnIsOKInDialog

o  returnIsOKInDialog: aBoolean

o  usePreferredExtent
return the value of the instance variable 'usePreferredExtent' (automatically generated)

o  usePreferredExtent: aBoolean
set the value of the instance variable 'usePreferredExtent' (automatically generated)

o  uuid: anId
(comment from inherited method)
this UUID MUST be unique among all specs.
When the spec is used by the builder,
this uuid is set in the generated view;
Thus, all views which will ever be created will get this same
uuid assigned, and can thus be accessed using that id,
independent of their hierarchy, label, contents etc.
Useful for automation of Smalltalk applications (i.e. expecco).

If a spec has no uuid, it will get one assigned, when stored the next time
(and then remain fix forever)

o  setExportedAspectsFrom: aList

building
o  buildView

o  buildViewFor: aBuilder
notice: the menu and scrollBars are setup in FullSpec ...

o  postBuildView: aView for: aBuilder
callback from builder, when a components subComponents
have been built - allows for late fixups ...
