Most of the time I believe that separated tabs and pages are unintuitive, however for two cases I believe it is currently nessesary as a hack: When you don't want a border around your pages, and when you want widgets next to the tabs (like the close button in older firefox). While the former is being resolved in the latest gtk's using a new property, I don't see much progress for the latter. In my app, PyChess, I use one notebook for tabs and 5 for pages, which switch synchronously. This is done in order to preserve the VPaned/HPaned layout through pages. -- Best Regards, Med Venlig Hilsen, Thomas Bomb, Riksdagen, Regeringen, Död, Terror, Mord, Planer, Muslimska brödraskapet, Alluah akbar, Kärnkraft Stop the Swedish surveillance: stoppafralagen.nu _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
