= Class: Notebook([http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygtk/ gtk.Notebook]) =

Sugar has its own notebook class that is built on top of gtk.Notebook. Use the sugar version so that you can access specialized methods as needed.

=== How do I create a new notebook and populate it with pages? ===

The simple example below creates three pages, each with different types of containers. You can make anything a page in your notebook as long as it is a valid gtk container.

<pre>
from sugar.graphics.notebook import Notebook
...
top_canvas = Notebook()
#Create pages for the notebook
first_page = gtk.VBox()
second_page = gtk.VBox()
third_page = gtk.Frame()

#Add the pages to the notebook.
top_box.add_page('First Page', first_page)
top_box.add_page('Second Page', second_page)
top_box.add_page('Third_Page', third_page)

#Set the canvas for this activity's UI to be the notebook object just created.
self.set_canvas(top_canvas)
</pre>


=== How do I do other standard operations on a sugar Notebook? ===
Most other work with the sugarized notebook can be done by using the [http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygtk/class-gtknotebook.html gtk.Notebook] interface
