An OptionContainer is a widget that hasn’t been wrapped up for use under Win32; to fix this bug, you’d need to write a Win32 implementation of this widget.

It’s a container widget that allows you to switch between different panels. The usual native implementation would be a Tab view. The implementation would go under toga_win32/widgets/optioncontainer.py.

What you’d be looking to write is code similar to toga_win32/widgets/button.py, but providing the same interface as OptionContainer on the Cocoa and GTK implementations.

If you’re interested in contributing to the Win32 backend, I’d certainly appreciate the help - Win32 is an important platform, but it’s not one where I have any expertise (or even access to for development purposes).

I’ve just experienced this problem on Windows.

I know Windows support is experimental, but I’m wondering where the toga.OptionContainer() is supposed to come from.

What would be the steps to fix this?
