Notebook widget container

The Notebook widget is a whose children are pages that can be switched between using tabs along the edge. Tabs are typically widgets, but can be any other widget. There are many configuration options for Notebooks. Among other things, you can choose on which edge the tabs appear (The property), whether, if there are too many tabs to fit the notebook should be made bigger or scrolling arrows added (The property), and whether there will be a popup menu allowing the users to switch pages (The property). Notebooks without tabs, can be used as containers to quickly switch between different groups of information to reduce any flicker caused by widget relayout by the application.
