Inheritance diagram for wx.NotebookEvent:
This class represents the events generated by a notebook control: currently, there are two of them. The PAGE_CHANGING event is sent before the current page is changed. It allows the program to examine the current page (which can be retrieved with GetOldSelection) and to veto the page change by calling event.Veto() if, for example, the current values in the controls of the old page are invalid.
The second event - PAGE_CHANGED - is 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.

| Event Name | Description |
|---|---|
| wx.EVT_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED(id, func) | The page selection was changed. Processes a wx.wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED event. |

Constructor, used internally.
Parameters:
Returns:
Returns the page that was selected before the change, -1 if none was selected.
Returns:
int
Returns the currently selected page, or -1 if none was selected.
Returns:
int
Note
under Windows, GetSelection() will return the same value as GetOldSelection() when called from wx.EVT_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGING handler and not the page which is going to be selected.
Note
Also note that the values of selection and old selection returned for an event generated in response to a call to wx.Notebook.SetSelection shouldn’t be trusted as they are currently inconsistent under different platforms (but in this case you presumably don’t need them anyhow as you already have the corresponding information).
Sets the id of the page selected before the change.
Parameters:
Sets the selection member variable.
