Basicly I just know the widget pointer, so it requires some processing to find the correct parent notebooks and setting the page... but that part is close to working.

So it seems to be quite a job and still I'm totally confused about how to get the adjustment of anything at all. E.g. how do I get the adjustment of an entry inside a vbox?
