8 DUIM-Gadgets Library
8.9 Page gadgets
A page gadget is used to define the contents of a page in any control that consists of multiple pages. Different classes of page gadget are used for different types of multi-page control. There are three types of page available:
<tab-control-page>- These are pages that are used within a tab control. Clicking on any tab in a tab control displays a different page of information.
<property-page>- These are pages that are displayed in property frames: modeless dialog boxes that contain several pages of information displayed as tabbed pages. This class is similar to
<tab-control-page>, except that its use is limited to modeless dialog boxes. For more information about property frames, see Chapter 9, "DUIM-Frames Library". <wizard-page>This type of page is used exclusively in wizard frames, in which the user is guided through a sequence of steps in order to perform a specified operation. For more information about wizard frames, see Chapter 9, "DUIM-Frames Library".
Note: The <wizard-page> and <property-page> classes are actually exposed by the DUIM-Frames library, rather than the DUIM-Gadgets library. See Chapter 9, "DUIM-Frames Library"for full details on this library.
