13 This class represents a property sheet dialog: a tabbed dialog
14 for showing settings. It is optimized to show flat tabs
15 on PocketPC devices, and can be customized to use different
16 controllers instead of the default notebook style.

18 To use this class, call wxPropertySheetDialog::Create from your own
19 Create function. Then call wxPropertySheetDialog::CreateButtons, and create
20 pages, adding them to the book control.
21 Finally call wxPropertySheetDialog::LayoutDialog.

FM
25 @code
26 bool MyPropertySheetDialog::Create(...)
27 {
28 if (!wxPropertySheetDialog::Create(...))
29 return @false;
7c913512 30
23324ae1 31 CreateButtons(wxOK|wxCANCEL|wxHELP);

33 // Add page
34 wxPanel* panel = new wxPanel(GetBookCtrl(), ...);
35 GetBookCtrl()-AddPage(panel, wxT("General"));

42 If necessary, override CreateBookCtrl and AddBookCtrl to create and add a
43 different
44 kind of book control. You would then need to use two-step construction for the
45 dialog.
46 Or, change the style of book control by calling
7c913512 47 wxPropertySheetDialog::SetSheetStyle
23324ae1 48 before calling Create.

50 The dialogs sample shows this class being used with notebook and toolbook
51 controllers (for
52 Windows-style and Mac-style settings dialogs).

54 To make pages of the dialog scroll when the display is too small to fit the
55 whole dialog, you can switch
56 layout adaptation on globally with wxDialog::EnableLayoutAdaptation or
57 per dialog with wxDialog::SetLayoutAdaptationMode. For more
58 about layout adaptation, see @ref overview_autoscrollingdialogs "Automatic
59 scrolling dialogs".
