</pre><HR>
</pre><H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<P>
The <B>tabnotebook</B> command creates a new window (given by the pathName
argument) and makes it into a <B>tabnotebook</B> widget. Additional options,
described above may be specified on the command line or in the option
database to configure aspects of the tabnotebook such as its colors, font,
and text. The tabnotebook command returns its pathName argument. At the
time this command is invoked, there must not exist a window named
pathName, but pathName's parent must exist.
<P>
A <B>tabnotebook</B> is a widget that contains a set of tabbed pages. It
displays one page from the set as the selected page. A Tab displays the
label for the page to which it is attached and serves as a page
selector. When a page's tab is selected, the page's contents are displayed
in the page area. The selected tab has a three-dimensional effect to make
it appear to float above the other tabs. The tabs are displayed as a group
along either the left, top, right, or bottom edge. When first created a
tabnotebook has no pages. Pages may be added or deleted using widget
commands described below.
<P>
A special option may be provided to the tabnotebook. The <B>-auto</B>
option specifies whether the tabnotebook will automatically handle the
unpacking and packing of pages when pages are selected. A value of
true signifies that the notebook will automatically manage it. This is the
default value. A value of false signifies the notebook will not perform
automatic switching of pages.
</pre><H2>NOTEBOOK PAGES</H2>
A tabnotebook's pages area contains a single child site frame. When a
new page is created it is a child of this frame. The page's child site
frame serves as a geometry container for applications to pack widgets
into. It is this frame that is automatically unpacked or packed when
the auto option is true. This creates the effect of one page being visible
at a time. When a new page is selected, the previously selected page's
child site frame is automatically unpacked from the tabnotebook's child
site frame and the newly selected page's child site is packed into the
tabnotebook's child site frame.
<P>
However, sometimes it is desirable to handle page changes in a different
manner. By specifying the <B>auto</B> option as <B>false</B>, child site
packing can be disabled and done differently. For example, all widgets
might be packed into the first page's child site <B>frame</B>. Then when
a new page is selected, the application can reconfigure the widgets
and give the appearance that the page was flipped.
<P>
In both cases the command option for a page specifies a Tcl Command
to execute when the page is selected. In the case of <B>auto</B>
being <B>true</B>, it is between the unpacking of the previously selected
page and the packing of the newly selected page.
<P>
Notebook pages can also be controlled with scroll bars or other widgets
that obey the <B>scrollcommand</B> protocol. By giving a scrollbar
a <B>-command</B> to call the tabnotebook's <B>select</B> method, the
tabnotebook can be controlled with a scrollbar.
<P>
The notebook area is implemented with the notebook mega widget.
</pre><H2>TABS</H2>
Tabs appear along the edge of the notebook area. Tabs are drawn to appear
attached to their associated page. When a tab is clicked on, the associated
page is selected and the tab is drawn as raised above all other tabs and as
a seamless part of its notebook page. Tabs can be controlled in their
location along the edges, the angle tab sides are drawn with, gap between
tabs, starting margin of tabs, internal padding around text labels in
a tab, the font, and its label.
<P>
The Tab area is implemented with the <B>tabset</B> mega widget.
See <B>tabset(1)</B>. Tabs may be oriented along either the north, south,
east, or west sides with the <B>tabPos</B> option. North and south tabs
may appear as angled, square, or bevelled. West and east tabs may appear
as square or bevelled. By changing tab gaps, tab angles, bevelling,
orientations, colors, fonts, start locations, and margins; tabs may appear
in a wide variety of styles. For example, it is possible to implement
Microsoft-style tabs, Borland property tab styles, or Borland Delphi
style tabs all with the same tabnotebook.
</pre><H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS</H2>
<P>
The <B>tabnotebook</B> command creates a new Tcl command whose name
is <I>pathName</I>. This command may be used to invoke various operations
on the widget. It has the following general form:
<pre>
<I>pathName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>?
</pre>
<I>option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s
determine the exact behavior of the command.
<P>
Many of the widget commands for a notebook take as one argument an
indicator of which page of the notebook to operate on. These indicators are
called indexes and may be specified in any of the following forms:
<DL>
<DT> <I>number</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies the page numerically, where 0 corresponds to the first page
in the notebook, 1 to the second, and so on.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>select</B>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies the currently selected page's index. If no page is currently
selected, the value -1 is returned.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>end</B>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifes the last page in the tabnotebook's index. If the notebook is empty
this will return -1.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pattern</I>
</I></B>
<DD> If the index doesn't satisfy any of the above forms, then this form is
used. Pattern is pattern-matched against the label of each page in the
notebook, in order from the first to the last page, until a matching entry
is found. The rules of Tcl_StringMatch are used.
'.............................................................................
The following commands are possible for tabnotebook widgets:
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>add</B> ?<I>option</I> <I>value</I> <I>option</I> <I>value</I> ...?
</I></B>
<DD> Add a new page at the end of the tabnotebook. A new child site frame is
created. Returns the child site pathName. If additional arguments are
present, they specify any of the following options:
</DL>
<UL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-angle</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifes the angle of slope from the inner edge to the outer edge of the
tab. An angle of 0 specifies square tabs. Valid ranges are 0 to 45 degrees
inclusive. Default is 15 degrees. If this option is specified as an empty
string (the default), then the angle option for the overall tabnotebook
is used. This is generally only set at the tabnotebook level. Tabs normally
will want to share the same angle value.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-background</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies a background color to use for displaying tabs when they are
selected and for displaying the current page. If this option is specified
as an empty string (the default), then the background option for the
overall tabnotebook is used.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-bevelamount</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifes the size of tab corners. A value of 0 with angle set to 0
results in square tabs. A bevelAmount of 4, means that the tab will be
drawn with angled corners that cut in 4 pixels from the edge of the tab.
The default is 0. This is generally only set at the tabnotebook level.
Tabs normally will want to share the same bevelAmount.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-bitmap</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> If label is a non-empty string, specifies a bitmap to display in this
page's tab. Bitmap may be of any of the forms accepted by Tk_GetPixmap.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-command</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies a Tcl command to be executed when this page is selected. This
allows the programmer a hook to reconfigure this page's widgets or any
other page's widgets.
<UL>
If the tabnotebook has the auto option set to true, when a page is
selected this command will be called immediately after the previously
selected page is unpacked and immediately before this page is selected. The
index value select is valid during this Tcl command. `index select' will
return this page's page number.
</UL>
<UL>
If the auto option is set to false, when a page is selected the unpack
and pack calls are bypassed. This Tcl command is still called.
</UL>
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-disabledforeground</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies a foreground color to use for displaying tab labels when tabs
are in their disable state. If this option is specified as an empty

default), then the padY option for the overall tabnotebook is used
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <B>-state</B> <I>value</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Specifies one of two states for the page: normal or disabled. In normal state
unselected tabs are displayed using the tabforeground and tabbackground
option from the tabnotebook or the page. Selected tabs and pages are
displayed using the foreground and background option from the tabnotebook or
the page. The disabled state means that the page and its tab is
insensitive: it doesn't respond to mouse button presses or releases. In this
state the entry is displayed according to its disabledForeground option for
the tabnotebook and the background/tabbackground option from the page or
the tabnotebook.

</I></B>
<DD> This command is similar to the <B>configure</B> command, except that it
applies to the options for an individual page, whereas configure applies
to the options for the tabnotebook as a whole. <I>Options</I> may have
any of the values accepted by the add widget command. If options are
specified, options are modified as indicated in the command and the
command returns an empty string. If no options are specified, returns a
list describing the current options for page index (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B>
for information on the format of this list).
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>prev</B>
</I></B>
<DD> Moves the selected page to the previous page (order is determined by
insertion order). If the currently selected page is the first page in
the notebook, the selection wraps around to the last page in the notebook. It
behaves as if the user selected the new page.
<UL>
For notebooks with <B>auto</B> set to <B>true</B> the current page's
child site is unpacked from the notebook's child site <B>frame</B>. Then the
previous page's child site is packed into the notebook's child site frame.
The Tcl command given with the command option will be invoked between these
two operations.
</UL>
<UL>
For notebooks with <B>auto</B> set to <B>false</B> the Tcl command given
with the command option will be invoked.

<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>select</B> <I>index</I>

<DD> Selects the page specified by <I>index</I> as the currently selected page.
It behaves as if the user selected the new page.
<UL>
For notebooks with <B>auto</B> set to <B>true</B> the current page's child
site is unpacked from the notebook's child site frame. Then the <I>index</I>
page's child site is packed into the notebook's child site frame. The
Tcl command given with the command option will be invoked between these two
operations.

<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>view</B>
</I></B>
<DD> Returns the currently selected page. This command is for compatibility with
the <B>scrollbar</B> widget.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>view</B> <I>index</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Selects the page specified by <I>index</I> as the currently selected page.
This command is for compatibility with the <B>scrollbar</B> widget.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>view</B> <B>moveto</B> <I>fraction</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Uses the <I>fraction</I> value to determine the corresponding page to move to.
This command is for compatibility with the <B>scrollbar</B> widget.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>view</B> <B>scroll</B> <I>num</I> <I>what</I>
</I></B>
<DD> Uses the <I>num</I> value to determine how many pages to move forward or
backward (<I>num</I> can be negative or positive). The <I>what</I> argument
is ignored. This command is for compatibility with the <B>scrollbar</B> widget.
