In the current implementation of Tix, there is no limits on how you
  can access the options of the subwidgets. However, many options of
  the subwidgets may be already used by the mega-widget in special
  ways. For example, the 
-textvariable option of the entry  subwidget of TixControl may be used to store some private
  information for the mega widget. Therefore, you should access the
  options of the subwidgets with great care. In general you should
  only access those options that affect the appearance of the
  subwidgets (such as 
-font or -foreground) and leave
  everything else intact. (
) {In future versions of Tix, there
  will be explicit restrictions on which subwidget options you can
  access. Errors will be generated if you try to access restricted
  subwidget options}
