A [Tk] (or rather [Ttk]) [widget] that stacks a bunch of widgets on top of each other in a window, with some tabs at the top to allow users to select between the widgets. A common idiom in Windows's Properties dialogs. : http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TkCmd/ttk_notebook.htm ---- A [notebook] may be used as a '''pages manager'''[http://wiki.tcl.tk/17852] by using a style to turn off the tabs, like this (by [Joe English]): style theme settings default { style layout Plain.TNotebook.Tab null } ttk::notebook $nb -style Plain.TNotebook ---- [tonytraductor] I have a question. Using a ttk::notebook, how do I pass the currently selected tab's info to a process, as in, say I have: proc prnt {} { set data [.txt.$CURRENTAB get 1.0 {end -1c}] set fileid [open $::filename w] puts -nonewline $fileid $data close $fileid exec cat $::filename | lpr } Short of giving the proc the tab's windowname (ie. .txt.tab1) how can this be done? I need it to be a variable that I can pass to the process, whether for save/print, etc. for multiple tabs, without writing a new process and menu bar for each tab. The problem is, I don't know how to set currenttab {somethinghere}, or what it is that determines which tab is currently open. I hope my question is clear. I assume I should be doing something like menubar.file add command -label print -command {print currenttab} -accelerator Ctrl-P proc print {currentab} {rest of process} I've looked at the notebook.tcl demo in ActiveTcl-8.5, and there is nothing in the code that indicates how to determine which tab is open, at least not so far as I can tell. I looked at krocedit [http://wiki.tcl.tk/12068], too, but that uses a Bwidget, and, I want to just use the activetcl widget, and, still, even looking at that editor, I was unable to determine how it was done, anyway. ---- !!!!!! %|[Category Widget]|% !!!!!!
