So I'm trying to accomplish two things with a Tk::Notebook. First I would like to be able to change the order of the tabs. I have reviewed the source but I could not see a way to do it. Second I have a check box to enable/disable auto scrolling between all the tabs and while doing this I want any action taken within the notebook to set '$scroll' to 0. Thank you for your time.

use Tk;
use Tk::Pane;
use Tk::NoteBook;

my $mainwindow = MainWindow->new();
my $controller_tabs;
my $scroll = 0;

$mainwindow->repeat(3000, sub {
    if ($scroll) {
        $controller_tabs->raise($controller_tabs->info("focusnext"));
    }
});

$controller_tabs = $mainwindow->NoteBook(-dynamicgeometry=>1)->pack(-s
+ide=>"top");

$mainwindow->Checkbutton(-text=>"Monitor Controllers", -variable=>\$sc
+roll, -onvalue=>1, -offvalue=>0)->pack(-side=>"top");

for (my $x = 0; $x < 5; $x++) {
    $controller_tabs->add("tab$x", -label=>"tab$x");
}

MainLoop();
