Re: Re-attaching tab to notebook via "close" event

[richard boaz <ivor boaz gmail com>]

hi,

connect a callback to the "delete-event" associated with the new window.  you are keeping track of which tabs are where at any given moment, so when you receive the "delete-event" callback, simply move the tabs found in that window back over to the notebook in the original window.

it is a question of intercepting the the widget destroy event on the window before GTK+ has a chance to issue destroy events for all its child widgets..  Re-parenting your notebook tabs before they are issued destroy events is key.

If I take a page from a notebook (a tab from a notebook) and move it, it creates a window.

What I want is to take all the pages from the new window and re-insert them into the old notebook when a close event occurs (ie the X exit or File->Close).

What is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks.
