Jul 5, 2011Ok, so I'm using vb.net and there isn't a way to unhide/hide tabs so I have to use TabControl.TabPages.Add() and TabControl.TabPages.Remove() to do this. All of my tabs are labeled as Account1, Account2, etc. all the way up to Account25. I want to make a loop and be able do something like this so that I can add the tabs in the right order:
View 2 Replies.net - Reorder Tabs In TabControl Without Flickering
Dec 17, 2010There are multiple examples of modified TabControls on the Internet which allow the user to reorder the tabs using drag and drop. However, all seem to use the following technique:
Determine which tab is being dragged
Determine the index to which the tab is being dragged
Empty the tab page collection and add in the new order
The last step, hoewever, causes the control to flicker alot. Besides this, when there are a lot of tab pages on the tab control, it is rather slow.
Is it possible to swap items (i.e. swap indexes) in a TabPageCollection, without the TabControl flickering?

Aug 12, 2011I need to be able to programmatically create new tabs on a TabControl, add controls to them, and be able to update the controls in each tab from another function. I already have a function to add tabs to the control, and to add controls to those tabs when they are created, but I'm stuck as to update the controls after they have been created.EDIT: This is what I have to make the tabs and add the controls:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim tabpage As New TabPage
tabpage.Text = "(empty)"

I can't seem to get back into the account I used to post this question, so I have to post my follow-up to Tim's question in the comments for the previous answer as a new answer.Debug.WriteLine(TabControl1.TabPages.Item(2).Controls.Find("textbox1", True).Count) returns 0. The tab and the controls have been created prior.
Force TabControl To Draw All Tabs?
Mar 26, 2011I have an app with a TabControl that has 4 tabs on it. Each tab has probably 15 or so controls on it.This app is multilingual, so sometimes I need to resize things dynamically to make everything fit properly.For instance,I might need to resize a GroupBox to ensure a CheckBox can fit inside it properly if the language is changed. The language selection is on the tab with the GroupBoxes.
This dynamic resizing works flawlessly if I am already on the tab with the GroupBoxes when I make the language change, but when I start the app (on the first tab, not the language tab), my controls are being dynamically resized incorrectly (on the language tab).Further investigation showed me that only the first (currently selected) tab was the proper width, let's say 500, and the other tabs report 400 as their width, even though of course, they are indeed the same size.
I suspect this behavior is because unviewed tab pages are not... initialized? I'm not sure if that is the correct term. Even though I'm resizing controls on them? How can I bypass this behavior? Selecting each tab programmatically to "initialize" them does work, but is not a feasible option in this case, as the user can see it happening.

Aug 4, 2009I notice that the actual tabs on a TabControl are quite small (I am using VB 2008 Express). I would like more vertical space above and beneath the text on the tabs. I tried changing the padding in the TabPages collection but it didn't seem to do anything. Is there a way to make the tabs bigger?

View 15 RepliesSimluate Hiding / Unhiding Of Tabs In TabControl?
Jul 2, 2009I have a tab control which contains other controls which I populate at run-time. I want to be able to hide certains tabs in this control and then make them visible at certain times. My understanding is that you cannot hid individual tabs in a tab control. All you can do is add them and delete them. If this is the case, is it possible to populate my controls in a Master TabControl at run time, then use a second tab control which is shown at the end of the routine, then add/delete tabs to this second tabcontrol and copy the populated controls from the Master TabControl to these tabs.
The idea being that I will create my tabs on the fly after the routine has run but I need the ability to copy populated controls held elsewhere into this tabcontrol.

View 35 RepliesUse A Page Frame (like A TabControl) And Hide The Tabs?
Aug 31, 2009One of the great features of Page Frames in the now discontinued FoxPro language was that you could use a Page Frame (like a TabControl) and hide the tabs. The nice thing about this was that if you wanted (for example) to have simulated "frames" you could use a Page Frame control, hide the tabs, and that gave you endless frame that you could then access programmatically.I need to do something along the same lines. To further illustrate, if you look at any configuration screen in Office 2007, they all have a ListBox on the left, and then clicking on those Listbox selections brings up "frames" on the right with what you want to work with.This is the effect I want to create - but in .NET I cannot see a good control to use.
Panels - these seemed a good idea at first, but even when set to Visible and not Visible these frames hide each other so they dont seem like they will work.
GroupBoxes - Tried these but the same problem as with panels.
TabControl - Tried this, and it works great - but I DONT want the Tabs. Instead I want non-tabbed pages, that would then be like frames.
What is the best control to use? And, can I hide the Tabs somehow in the TabControl?

View 2 RepliesAdding An Image To 1 Of The Tabs On A TabControl, Blocks My Tab's Text?
Dec 9, 2011Using Visual Studio 2005 (vb.net) (windows forms) on Windows XP, I have a standard Microsoft TabControl.A button click adds/removes an image from 1 of the Tabs.Seems like the image is placed OVER my tab's text, making it unreadable.Why isn't it like it should be: Image on the left. Followed by text on the right.Why is the image being placed OVER my tab's text? Do I need to do some kind of "refresh" or "redraw" before it will appear as it should? I don't see any way to "make the image appear on the left edge of the tab". (NOT the tab-page.) ... and then place the text just to the right of the image. (Just like a normal image+text tab can do.)The code is pretty simple, it just gets an image from my ImageList: cfgTab.ImageKey = "PadLockClosed.png"' Show CLOSED PadLockThe tab's text changes from: This is my tab text to: T(IMAGE HERE)is my tab text The image appears OVER the beginning of my text. But if I move to another tab, then move back, the image appears in the correct position:(IMAGE HERE) This is my tab text

View 7 RepliesVS 2010 TabControl With DragDrop Not Raising MouseClick Events On Tabs
Aug 29, 2010I have a custom (inherited) TabControl which adds Drag/Drop functionality to it, so that one can drag the tabs around, either within the same control (to re-order them) or to and from other TabControls. I've noticed some time ago that my TabControl however was not raising its MouseClick and MouseUp events (or actually: it is not calling its OnMouseClick and OnMouseUp methods, which comes down to the same thing). I've been struggling with this problem for a long while and I finally figured out what is happening. I'm no closer to figuring out what to do about it though... The problem seems related to the drag drop functionality. I have this code in the OnMouseDown method (which is raised as usual):

[2008] TabControl On UserControl - Adding Tabs (Design-time)?
Dec 2, 2008I have a TabControl on a UserControl. I want the UserControl to behave like a TabControl as usual (it contains only the TabControl and a Contextmenu), including Design-time behavior.I have spent the last two weeks finding out how to add the Design-time behavior and I think I have come a far way.The problem is with adding TabPages during Design-time (while the UserControl is a custom tabcontrol, it is using regular windows forms TabPages).In the Designer class, I have the following code to add a TabPage:
vb.net
Dim dh As IDesignerHost = DirectCast(GetService(GetType(IDesignerHost)), IDesignerHost) If dh IsNot Nothing Then Dim i As Integer = tc.SelectedIndex Dim name As String = GetNewTabName() Dim tab As TabPage = TryCast(dh.CreateComponent(GetType(TabPage), name), TabPage) tab.Text = name tc.Controls.Add(tab)
[code]....
So it would add the control to the TabPages collection if it was a TabPage, and use the regular routine otherwise.
(I'm now using 'tc.Controls.Add(tab)' again instead of 'tc.tabCtrl.TabPages.Add')
But, I don't think the designer even gets that far because it is telling me I cannot add TabPages to my usercontrol, because only TabControls can accept TabPages... How can I make my usercontrol understand that it is a TabControl (without Inheriting from a TabControl?)
VS 2008 Create An Owner Drawn TabControl That Looks Like The Tabs In Visual Studio On XP?
Jul 8, 2009I'm trying to create an owner drawn TabControl that looks like the tabs in Visual Studio on XP (might look different in Vista, not so sure).So far, I've got the background and the blueish border, and now I've run into some trouble drawing the 'tab headers' (where the text is displayed).Here's what I got so far:
vb.net
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
Public Class cTabControl
#Region " Colors "

Why isn't this working? How do I draw a border like this around a 'normal' OwnerDrawn tabcontrol, without the funky SetStyle method..?also, the DoubleBuffer ControlStyle (in the SetStyles method) option is not listed in the Intellisense list, but it is accepted when I finish typing it... Is that a bug?
Check Tabs On Close?
Dec 31, 2009I'm making a notepad program and it's working out good except for when you close the form. I've tried to write a script that when you click the exit button will preform a check. For each tab in tabcontrol1 it will have a pop up asking if you want to save but only if the tab text doesn't = "New Tab" and has so content in its Rich Text Box. If the user clicks yes then it will save if no it just closes the tab. But if the user click cancel and aborts the close then it needs to stop the form from closing. But since there are multiple tabs I figured I'd use an array to hold the values of what was pressed and at the end if the array contains "no" or "n" then it wont close. But it doesn't work. Here's my code.
Public Sub closingform(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs)
If TabControl1.TabCount >= 1 Then
Dim i As Integer = 0
