Hello,

I'm not sure where to go to help with a problem with Tk/Tile--I've
gotten no reply on comp.lang.tcl, so thought this might be a better list
to try, as there's no tile-user's list and I'm not a Tile developer. If
I'm looking in the wrong place, please advise.

Anyway, my situation:

I'm trying to create a GUI using the Tk Tile theming system and I'm
having problems with the notebook widget. Here's my code:

#make notebook
tframe .notebookholder
pack .notebookholder -side top -fill x

tnotebook .notebookholder.nb -padding 6
.notebookholder.nb add [tframe .notebookholder.nb.stuff] -text "The real
deal"
.notebookholder.nb add [tlabel .notbookholder.nb.label1] -text "Not much
going on here..."

.notebookholder.nb add [tframe .notebookholder.nb.f1] -text "First tab"
- -underline 4
.notebookholder.nb add [tlabel .notebookholder.nb.label2] -text
"TkDarwinPorts rules!"

pack .notebookholder.nb -side bottom -fill y

I want the two tframe widgets (.notebookholder.nb.stuff and
.notebookholder.nb.f1) to be the tabs, and the two tlabel widgets
(.notebookholder.nb.label1 and .notebookholder.nb.label2) to be the
child widgets, i.e. the windows that are displayed beneath the tabs. But
this code only gets me the tabs with no windows underneath.

Can someone explain to me what I'm doing wrong here? I've looked at the
sample code for the Tile demo, but I'm pretty new to Tcl and that
particular code is hard for me to follow and I haven't seen a lot of
other applications using this particular widget set.

By the way--Tile is an incredible thing for Mac-based Tcl/Tk developers.
~ Finally, Tk can look completely native! Tk/Aqua is a great achievement,
but it misses some parts of the Apple HIG, especially the pinstripe
background. I'm working on a GUI for DarwinPorts (written in Tcl), and
one of the reasons I'm using Tk and Tile is to show that great Mac
interfaces can be done in this toolkit.

Thanks.
