|phoenix_title|  **wx.aui.AuiTabArt**
==========================================================================================================================================

Tab art provider defines all the drawing functions used by :ref:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook`.          

This allows the :ref:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook`  to have a pluggable look-and-feel. 

By default, a :ref:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook`  uses an instance of this class called :ref:`wx.aui.AuiDefaultTabArt`  which provides bitmap art and a colour scheme that is adapted to the major platforms' look. You can either derive from that class to alter its behaviour or write a completely new tab art class. 

Another example of creating a new :ref:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook`  tab bar is :ref:`wx.aui.AuiSimpleTabArt`. 

Call :meth:`wx.aui.AuiNotebook.SetArtProvider`   to make use of this new tab art.
