Re^5: A Perl Tk::NoteBook question

I would look for finding a way to put an actual Label in the tab, then all you need to do is swap lables in and out. The Tk widgets are a simple toolkit, not designed for all the fancy stuff, like Gtk2 and Gtk3 are. Gtk will allow you to put Pango ( stylized text) into any Label, and I may be wrong, but you can add the Label to the tab.

The -label option in Tk::NoteBook dosn't refer to an actual Label widget, but it would be nice if it did.

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.

Simple toolkit is good as my intention was more to learn a simple GUI in Perl and not worry too much about styles. I'm fine with Tk as it has been around for a long time and fulfills it's functions quite adequately (like you said in one your earlier posts: "in praise of poor old Tk"). Anyway, I must again thank you for all your quick responses in this regard.	[reply]
