# View Source wxTreebook (wx v2.4.3.1)

This class is an extension of the `wxNotebook` class that allows a tree structured set of pages to be shown in a control.

A classic example is a netscape preferences dialog that shows a tree of preference sections on the left and select section page on the right.

To use the class simply create it and populate with pages using `insertPage/5`, `insertSubPage/5`, `addPage/4`, `AddSubPage()` (not implemented in wx).

If your tree is no more than 1 level in depth then you could simply use `addPage/4` and `AddSubPage()` (not implemented in wx) to sequentially populate your tree by adding at every step a page or a subpage to the end of the tree.

    -spec addPage(This, Page, Text) -> boolean()
                     when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Text :: unicode:chardata().

Equivalent to `addPage(This, Page, Text, [])`.

# addPage/4

Equivalent to `advanceSelection(This, [])`.

# advanceSelection/2

- `setImageList/2`

# changeSelection(This, Page)

    -spec changeSelection(This, Page) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer().
