Tab property control

Hi, just a simple question. Basically when i press a start button i want a specific page on a tab to pop to the front of all the other tabs. And may be blinking or change colour.

Thanks in advance Stuart

Ok, the active page of a Tab control normally corresponds to its value, so you can change it at the beginning by writing a value in a local variable linked to your control. Also, Tab's have a "pages" property, it gives you an array of references to all control pages and, as a result, you can tweak different properties for each page, including page colour.

You are responding to a 4-year old thread, so it's not likely the original posters are still monitoring that thread.

 

To answer your question, open the Example Finder (Help -> Find Examples), and do a search on "tab". Open the example called "Tab Control Properties".
