# KPageDialog Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.kdeui import *`

Inherits: KDialog → QDialog → QWidget → QObject

## Detailed Description

A dialog base class which can handle multiple pages.

This class provides a dialog base class which handles multiple pages and allows the user to switch between these pages in different ways.

Currently, Auto, Plain, List, Tree and Tabbed face types are available (@see KPageView).

Example:\n

     UrlDialog.UrlDialog( QWidget *parent )
       : KPageDialog( parent )
     {
       setFaceType( List );

       QLabel *label = new QLabel( "Test Page" );
       addPage( label, i18n( "My Test Page" ) );

       label = new QLabel( "Second Test Page" );
       KPageWidgetItem *page = new KPageWidgetItem( label, i18n( "My Second Test Page" ) );
       page->setHeader( i18n( "My header string" ) );
       page->setIcon( KIcon( "file" ) );

       addPage( page );
     }

## Enumeration Documentation

FaceType

- Auto - A dialog with a face based on the structure of the
available pages. If only a single page is added, the dialog behaves like in Plain mode, with multiple pages without sub pages it behaves like in List mode and like in Tree mode otherwise.
- Plain - A normal dialog.
- List - A dialog with an icon list on the left side and a
representation of the contents on the right side.
- Tree - A dialog with a tree on the left side and a
representation of the contents on the right side.
- Tabbed - A dialog with a tab bar above the representation
of the contents.
