List of all members.

## Detailed Description

Container which shows one of its children at a time, in tabbed windows.

The Gtk::Notebook widget is a Gtk::Container whose children are pages that can be switched between using tab labels along one edge.

You can use the PageList returned by pages() as any normal STL container to manipulate the pages.

## Public Types

typedef Notebook_Helpers::PageList | PageList
typedef sigc::slot< Notebook*, Widget*, int, int > | SlotWindowCreation
| For instance, Notebook* on_window_creation(Widget* page, int x, int y);.
