Notice that wxSimplebook is special in that it only allows the program to change the selection, thus it's usually used in slightly different circumstances than the other variants. @see @ref group_class_bookctrl @section overview_bookctrl_bestbookctrl Best Book ::wxBookCtrl is mapped to the class best suited for a given platform. Currently it is the same as wxNotebook if it is compiled in (i.e. @c wxUSE_NOTEBOOK was not explicitly set to 0), otherwise it is the same as wxChoicebook. The mapping consists of: @beginTable @row2col{ ::wxBookCtrl, wxChoicebook or wxNotebook } @row2col{ @c wxEVT_COMMAND_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGED, @c wxEVT_COMMAND_CHOICEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED or @c wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED } @row2col{ @c wxEVT_COMMAND_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGING, @c wxEVT_COMMAND_CHOICEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGING or @c wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGING } @row2col{ @c EVT_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGED(id\, fn), @c EVT_CHOICEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED(id, fn) or @c EVT_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED(id, fn) } @row2col{ @c EVT_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGING(id\, fn), @c EVT_CHOICEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGING(id, fn) or @c EVT_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGING(id, fn) } @endTable For orientation of the book controller, use following flags in style: @li @b wxBK_TOP: controller above pages @li @b wxBK_BOTTOM: controller below pages @li @b wxBK_LEFT: controller on the left @li @b wxBK_RIGHT: controller on the right @li @b wxBK_DEFAULT: native controller placement */
