I tried both of these options (as best as I know how) and the problem 
still persists in one form or another. If an initial tab appears by 
default, it still has that grayish background, and expanding the window 
makes it white.

I'm not really sure how to create the Notebook at a later time, because 
it only needs to be done once, so I've only managed to put it into code 
that keeps creating it each time a new tab is created.
