[Pythoncard-users] Notebook Child Window

[Cullen N. <cn...@sa...>]

    Anyone mind telling me how to get the name of a notebook page, from 
the notebook page?  For instance if when I create a new notebook page 
with a name like: GPIB0::4 or COM1 vis a vis:

    nb = model.childWindow(self.components.notebook, e3631a.e3631a)
    self.components.notebook.AddPage(nb, 'E3631A'+' on '+str(instrum), True)

then from the created instance I would like to be able to do some thing 
like:
on_initialize(self,event):
    local_variable=my_page_name

Thanks in advance,

Cullen

I'll try to answer your question, though you never bothered to comment 
on my suggested "solution"  to your earlier request concerning 
multilingual GUIs.

wxPython comes with the wxWidgets doc. Reading 5 minutes of the doc on 
wxNotebook, I've got this that seems to do the stuff:

        # self.GetParent() gives you the notebook
        nb = self.GetParent()
        # Print the current sheet label ie. name
        print nb.GetPageText(nb.GetSelection())
        # Change it to something else
       # I know: you didn't ask, but I answer anyway
        nb.SetPageText(nb.GetSelection(), 'Characteristics of Raw Data')
        # Print it to be sure although the change show in the label
        print nb.GetPageText(nb.GetSelection())
