### Class

# AdwTabView

#### Description [src]

    final class Adw.TabView : Gtk.Widget {
      /* No available fields */
    }

A dynamic tabbed container.

`AdwTabView` is a container which shows one child at a time. While it provides keyboard shortcuts for switching between pages, it does not provide a visible tab bar and relies on external widgets for that, such as `AdwTabBar`.

`AdwTabView` maintains a `AdwTabPage` object for each page, which holds additional per-page properties. You can obtain the `AdwTabPage` for a page with adw_tab_view_get_page(), and as the return value for adw_tab_view_append() and other functions for adding children.

`AdwTabView` only aims to be useful for dynamic tabs in multi-window document-based applications, such as web browsers, file managers, text editors or terminals. It does not aim to replace `GtkNotebook` for use cases such as tabbed dialogs.

As such, it does not support disabling page reordering or detaching, or adding children via `GtkBuilder`.

## CSS nodes

`AdwTabView` has a main CSS node with the name `tabview`.
