The ``PAGE_CHANGING`` events are sent before the current page is changed. It allows the program to examine the current page (which can be retrieved with :meth:`wx.BookCtrlEvent.GetOldSelection` ) and to veto the page change by calling :meth:`wx.NotifyEvent.Veto` if, for example, the current values in the controls of the old page are invalid. The ``PAGE_CHANGED`` events are sent after the page has been changed and the program cannot veto it any more, it just informs it about the page change. To summarize, if the program is interested in validating the page values before allowing the user to change it, it should process the ``PAGE_CHANGING`` event, otherwise ``PAGE_CHANGED`` is probably enough. In any case, it is probably unnecessary to process both events at once. .. seealso:: :ref:`wx.Notebook`, :ref:`wx.Listbook`, :ref:`wx.Choicebook`, :ref:`wx.Treebook`, :ref:`wx.Toolbook`, :ref:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook` | |class_hierarchy| Class Hierarchy ================================= .. raw:: html
