SelectedNotebook

SelectedNotebook[ ] gives the currently selected notebook in the front end.

SelectedNotebook returns a NotebookObject.

The currently selected notebook will normally have its title bar highlighted.

The currently selected notebook is the one to which notebook-oriented menu commands in the front end will be directed. Textual commands are however directed to the input notebook.

A palette window can be a currently selected notebook but cannot normally be an input notebook.
