Determine if Tab is active

Solved!
Go to solution

If you have a Tab Control that has 3 tabs for example, I am wondering how do you go about determining if the 3rd tab is selected?  For example, I would like to use a True/False boolean output depending on if the 3rd tab is selected...if the tab is selected the boolean reads true, if not then false.  I imagine that this has to do with creating a tab control property node, but I am not sure which one would apply to this situation.  Any help would be appreciated.

A tab page has a terminal on the block diagram that can be read and checked to see if a particular tab is selected. See the code below. This is the easiest way to do what you would like to do.

hmmmm...

look at the tab controls value.  if it equals 3 then tab 3 is active.   (I can't resist)
