TixNoteBook
When your need to put a lot of information into your interface, you
may find out that your window has to grow intolerably big in order
to hold all the information. Having a window that's 10000
pixels wide and 5000 pixels high doesn't seem to be the perfect
solution. Of course, you can ``chop up'' your big window into a set
of smaller dialog boxes, but the user will most likely find it
impossible to manage 20 different dialog boxes on their desktop.
The TixNoteBook (fig 2-1) widget comes into rescue. It
allows you to pack a large interface into manageable ``pages'' using a
notebook metaphor: it contains multiple pages with anything you want on
them, displays one at a time, and attaches a tab to each page so the user
can bring it forward with a single click on the tab.
