Sheet

class vanilla.Sheet(posSize, parentWindow, minSize=None, maxSize=None, autosaveName=None)

A window that is attached to another window.

To add a control to a sheet, simply set it as an attribute of the sheet.:

from vanilla import Window, Sheet, Button

class SheetDemo:

    def __init__(self):
        self.w = Window((240, 140), "Sheet Demo")
        self.w.openSheet = Button((10, -30, -10, 20),
                    "open sheet", callback=self.openSheetCallback)
        self.w.open()

    def openSheetCallback(self, sender):
        self.sheet = Sheet((160, 70), self.w)
        self.sheet.closeSheet = Button((10, -30, -10, 20),
                    "close sheet", callback=self.closeSheetCallback)
        self.sheet.open()

    def closeSheetCallback(self, sender):
        self.sheet.close()
        del self.sheet
