wx.aui.AuiNotebook¶
wx.aui.AuiNotebook is part of the AUI
class framework, which represents a notebook control, managing multiple windows with associated tabs.
See also AUI Overview.
wx.aui.AuiNotebook is a notebook control which implements many features common in applications with dockable panes. Specifically, wx.aui.AuiNotebook implements functionality which allows the user to rearrange tab order via drag-and-drop, split the tab window into many different splitter configurations, and toggle through different themes to customize the control’s look and feel.
The default theme that is used is wx.aui.AuiDefaultTabArt, which provides a modern, glossy look and feel. The theme can be changed by calling wx.aui.AuiNotebook.SetArtProvider
.
