wxNotebook

Hello,

Is wxNotebook broken? I can’t seem to be able to change the Tabs placeholder to the bottom, left, or right. It is always on the top!

The wxNotebook demo is also producing no effect after I changed wx.NB_TOP to wx.NB_BOTTOM (left & right too)

I’m using wxPython 2.5, Python 2.3 , and on Windows XP OS

Thanks!!!

I believe in the wx docs it does mention that for XP, the tabs can only be placed on the top. I
noticed this because I was working on both XP and Win2K. It works as expected on Win2K. I don't know
of any workaround.

There isn't one. There are bugs in microsoft's XP theme renderers when drawing the tabs on any side except for the top, so it is disabled in wxWidgets.
