Well I have to admit that the FLTK2 documentation for WizardGroup is not really clear: WizardGroup: This class encapsulates Groups and shows only one group among n others at any time. Just create a WizardGroup as you would create a Group and add child Widgets inside. See http://www.fltk.org/doc-2.0/html/index.html but the FLTK1 documentation for Fl_Wizard does explain it better: Fl_Wizard: The Fl_Wizard widget is based off the Fl_Tabs widget, but instead of displaying tabs it only changes "tabs" under program control. Its primary purpose is to support "wizards" that step a user through configuration or troubleshooting tasks. As with Fl_Tabs, wizard panes are composed of child (usually Fl_Group) widgets. Navigation buttons must be added separately. See http://www.fltk.org/documentation.php/doc-1.1/Fl_Wizard.html What neither really says is that you need to have a button somewhere whose callback calls the relevant wizard widget's prev(), next() or value() methods in order to switch between panes You might want to look at Greg's FLTK1 Fl_Wizard example code at http://seriss.com/people/erco/fltk/#Fl_Wizard and then apply the same principles to the FLTK2 WizardGroup.
