Thank you for taking the time to investigate this behavior. I just posted an advanced example of a ttk.Notebook with close controls on the tabs. Apparently, it is possible to drill down into the child tab controls of the ttk Notebook using out-of-the-box ttk (without resorting to tcl magic). I'm studying this example now to see what may be possible regarding raising a got focus event for individual tab widgets ... as well as other advanced capabilities as well. Cool stuff!!
