How do I add a Notebook to a Box in a VBox?
I have created an empty box in Glade to add a Notebook to. The reason I am not adding the actual Notebook in Glade is because I hear that you cannot add pages to a Notebook made in Glade.
So, in Glade I have created a Box in an empty slot in a VBox. The code I am running is:
self.box = self.builder.get_object("box")
self.subjects = Gtk.Notebook()
self.box.add(self.subjects)
Nothing happens upon running, except these warnings which I believe will just occur anyway:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py:391: Warning: g_object_set_property: construct property "type" for object `Window' can't be set after construction
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, type=type, **kwds)
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py:391: Warning: g_object_set_property: construct property "type" for object `NotetakerWindow' can't be set after construction
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, type=type, **kwds)
Solution 1:
Here's an example that has context
from gi.repository import Gtk
class Handler:
def onDeleteWindow(self, *args):
Gtk.main_quit(*args)
def addNotebookClick(self, *args):
vbox = builder.get_object("attachtome")
mynote = builder.get_object("notebook1")
temp = Gtk.Box()
mynote.reparent(temp)
vbox.pack_start(temp, expand=False, fill=False, padding=0)
window.show_all()
builder = Gtk.Builder()
builder.add_from_file("howtoaskaprogrammingquestion.glade")
builder.connect_signals(Handler())
window = builder.get_object("window1")
window.show_all()
Gtk.main()
It works with this glade file
It provides this functionality:
This also works, if you're using your own Notebook. Note that when you run the example you see a slight change in window geometry(the object being added), but it doesn't appear to render because it doesn't have any tabs yet.
from gi.repository import Gtk
class Handler:
def onDeleteWindow(self, *args):
Gtk.main_quit(*args)
def addNotebookClick(self, *args):
vbox = builder.get_object("attachtome")
mynote = Gtk.Notebook()
#mynote = builder.get_object("notebook1")
#temp = Gtk.Box()
#mynote.reparent(temp)
vbox.pack_start(mynote, expand=False, fill=False, padding=0)
window.show_all()
builder = Gtk.Builder()
builder.add_from_file("howtoaskaprogrammingquestion.glade")
builder.connect_signals(Handler())
window = builder.get_object("window1")
window.show_all()
Gtk.main()
