19 A book control is a convenient way of displaying multiple pages of information,
20 displayed one page at a time. wxWidgets has five variants of this control:
21
22 \begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
23 \item \helpref{wxNotebook}{wxnotebook}: uses a row of tabs
24 \item \helpref{wxListbook}{wxlistbook}: controlled by a \helpref{wxListCtrl}{wxlistctrl}
25 \item \helpref{wxChoicebook}{wxchoicebook}: controlled by a \helpref{wxChoice}{wxchoice}
26 \item \helpref{wxTreebook}{wxtreebook}: controlled by a \helpref{wxTreeCtrl}{wxtreectrl}
27 \item \helpref{wxToolbook}{wxtoolbook}: controlled by a \helpref{wxToolBar}{wxtoolbar}

32 wxBookCtrl is mapped to the class best suited for a given platform.
33 Currently it provides \helpref{wxChoicebook}{wxchoicebook} for smartphones equipped with
34 WinCE, and \helpref{wxNotebook}{wxnotebook} for all other platforms. The mapping consists of:
