Adding Tabs to a ToolTipText

Hi. I learned (from someone else) how to add several lines to a ToolTipText using HTML (because \n won't work):
public void setToolTipText(String[] TextLines)
    StringBuffer finalText = new StringBuffer("<html>");
    for (int l = 0; l < TextLines.length; l++)
        if (l != 0) finalText.append("<br>");
        finalText.append(TextLines[l]);
    finalText.append("</html>");
    this.setToolTipText(finalText.toString());
}What I would like to know now: is there a way that I can add tabs to my ToolTipText? HTML (as far as I know) doesn't have a real tab specification. And the \t character doesn't seem to work here...

Thanks. I used both of your suggestions, and it worked great.
Here is my solution:
// Allows multi-line messages with tabs.
// Of course, the tabs are fake because HTML doesn't allow real '\t' tabs.
public void setToolTipTextWithTabs(String[] TextLines, int TabSize)
    StringBuffer finalText = new StringBuffer("<html><table align='right' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>");
    for (int l = 0; l < TextLines.length; l++)
        finalText.append("<tr><td>");
        finalText.append(TextLines[l].replaceAll("\t", "</td><td>" + CreateRepeatedString(" ", TabSize) + "</td><td>"));
        finalText.append("</td></tr>");
    finalText.append("</table></html>");
    this.setToolTipText(finalText.toString());
public String CreateRepeatedString(String original, int times)
    StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
    for (int t = 1; t <= times; t++)
        buffer.append(original);
    return buffer.toString();
}It doesn't work exactly like normal tabs, but it's actually quite a bit cleaner. I'm using these ToolTipTexts as a preview for something, and now I like the previews better than the end result! So I'll try to find something to put the final result into HTML like the ToolTipTexts.
Thanks again.

Adding tabs dynamically at runtime for a tab navigator control

Hi,
Is it possible in flex builder 2 to dynamically add the tabs
at runtime to the tab navigator control, if we can add plz tell the
procedure to do that
thanks in advance

Given that you had a tab navigator declared in mxml like
this:
<mx:TabNavigator id="myTabber" selectedIndex="0">
</mx:TabNavigator>
you should just be able to call the addChild method, passing
the child tab containers. So for example, in some ActionScript
event handler:
var newTab:Canvas = new Canvas();
myTabber.addChild(newTab);
bear in mind I haven't done this by adding tabs, but have
done tons with adding controls to an application at runtime using
this method (DataGrids, Grid, GridItems, etc...)

WHY IS THE JUST ADDED TAB STILL NOT ON iTUNES!!???

Okay so alot of people including myself are wondering why the just added tab in itunes keeps disappearing. I don't understand it because that is where I find most of my music that are new and coming in for that week. I don't understand why they simply just can't put it back on there and let people use it! It's bad enough that we have to pay 1.29 per song when I remember it being that I could have gotten 15 songs worth 15 dollars at .99 cents per song. Nowadays I can get like 11 or 12!!!! YOU GUYS NEED TO SERIOUSLY FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes it is working for the majority there are a small number of customers who are having problems

Very thanks.

Hi!
You need add one tabPage in Item Form rigth?
You can used the function:
public void AddTab(string formID, string tabName, string tabNum, string tabCaption)
            try
                Form oForm = oApp.Forms.GetForm(formID, 0);
                    Item oItPosition = oForm.Items.Item(tabNum);
                    Item oItTbTest = oForm.Items.Add(tabName, BoFormItemTypes.it_FOLDER);
                    oItTbTest.Top = oItPosition.Top;
                    oItTbTest.Height = oItPosition.Height;
                    oItTbTest.Width = oItPosition.Width;
                    oItTbTest.Left = (oItPosition.Left + oItPosition.Width) + 20;
                    oItTbTest.AffectsFormMode = true;
                    Folder oTbTest = (Folder)oItTbTest.Specific;
                    oTbTest.Caption = tabCaption;
                    oTbTest.ValOff = "0";
                    oTbTest.ValOn = "1";
                    oTbTest.GroupWith(tabNum);
            catch (Exception e)
                oApp.StatusBar.SetText(e.Message, BoMessageTime.bmt_Medium, BoStatusBarMessageType.smt_Error);

JTabbedPane - not selecting newly added tabs

Is there a way to make it so that newly added tabs in a JTabbedPane are not automatically selected as they are added?
Thanks,
Adam

I don't understand what you mean! It's just the normal behavior addTab and insertTab have! So what do you mean? insertTab remembers the currently selected tab and after adding the new tab tries selecting that one again. Maybe you select the new component after adding it.

Adding tabs at the header

Hi Experts,
I have added some tabs at the header for Order,Order from Template and Order Template. Problem I am facing is when I am clicking on those tabs it is working fine everywhere except when I am in catalog page.
Has anybody faced the similar issue. Please advice on this.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards
Harshmeet Singh

Hi,
I have added tabs for Order,Order from template and OrderTemplate in header.jsp which are in the form of links in welcome.jsp. I am not able to go back to any of the pages from catalog page. It is giving an error at the bottom of the page saying location is null or not an object.But the same links are working if I am in any other part of the web shop.
@Arshi
Thanks for your input. Will work on it and will let you know if I still face any issues.

My recently added tabs are restored only partially after restarting Firefox 4

I changed the following
browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo;50
browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo;12
At some point after that in the following sequence:
1. most of recently added tabs and some windows didn't restore after Firefox restart
2. some recently deleted tabs disappeared from "recently closed tabs" in history
3. ''recently closed windows'' in history disappeared
Have anybody changed this and got similar problems? Imho, it's history storage related.

Are you running Firefox in "Permanent Private Browsing" mode?
You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"<br />
To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
It is also possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

How can i get songs to populate in recently added tab in itunes

I accidentally deleted recently added tab in itunes.. I was able to add it back in in itunes but cannot get songs that i recently added to populate in this tab.. Some1 please help

I have the same problem. Writing an email is a completely different thing from browsing the web and often you will need information from the website that includes the "mailto:"-link to write the mail. Thus opening the mail client in the same window really is not an example of ergonomic GUI design.
Manual workarounds will not work as nowadays often mailto-links are scrambled in a javascript to prevent spam. The new tab/window will then show the javascript command in the address bar, which will, of course, fail to function.
Opening Gmail in a new window or new tab by standard when using it as the default mailto-client in Firefox would be most welcome.
BTW this is how it works Chrome by standard, too. And I actually do not want to switch back just because of the handling of mailto-links. But it is too annoying on the long run.

Adding Tab, Sub Tab

Hello All,
I would like to adding tab and sub tab in Breadcrum.
The tab also associates with user role.
Is it possible in APEx? How?
Thanks in advance,
EB NY
Edited by: early bird on Aug 18, 2009 8:44 AM

For Tabs and Sub Tabs, you can either create normal tabs or you can use a Tabbed Navigation List. For User role implementation you can create authorization schemes and then based on the user roles you can hide/show different tabs.
Hope it helps. Thanks!

Why data are not getting poulated in dynamically added tab in a tab navigator???

Hi All,
I am facing a very strange problem and need you expert opinion on this. Ok so the problem goes like this:
In my application i have a tab navigator where i have 2 fixed tabs say tab A and tab B. In tab B I have a data grid where All the user name are getting populated. Once the user clicks on any datagrid row i am dynamically adding a new tab based on username , so if in my datagrid u1,u2 and u3 are getting displayed then once you clik on u1 a new tab called u1 is getting displayed. Code for this goes like this:
var vbox1: VBox= new VBox();
box1.label=mydatagrid.selectedItem.uName;
var sde:* = new searchDetails();
vbox1.addChild(sde);
myTabnavigator.addChild(vBox1);
Application.application.searchdetails.displayall();
I have created a component called searchDetails where i have designed the page wit various fields for this tab.This also has a method called displayall() which is populating the data in all fields using php an my sql where i have designed the page wit various fields for this tab.
New tab is getting displayed perfectly. My problem is once the tab is getting displayed fields are not getting populated with data.
Please let me know what wrong i am doing. I am really struggling

Hmm.. you have to assign text to the labelfields on creation complete not before that, the fllow will be like this
var vbox1: VBox= new VBox();
var sde:* = new searchDetails();
vbox1.addEventListener(creationcompleteevent,function);
vbox1.addChild(sde);
myTabnavigator.addChild(vBox1);
function(e:event):void{
box1.label = "text";

Adding tabs to View based application in mobile project

Hi,
I wanted to if tabs can be added to a view based (ViewNavigatorApplication) ? I need tabs few of my views also tabs will be different in different views.
If using TabbedNavigatorApplication is the only option how do I create a first view without tabs and different tabs in different section of the application.

on what page of the app (P-Track, right?)... I assume you desire to see them listed in the project details, page 200? If so, the source for the query for that region has a where clause hard-coded for m.milestone_status='Open' ... removing it would get what you want there (they will still be color coded). I've modified this application extensively such that I have an actual control on the region(s) to allow the user to choose "open/all" (for milestones and actions)
Otherwise, you can adjust the search filter 'status' option on page 35 to 'all' (the default is 'open') and click go.. (and/or add a new list option in that control for 'closed'..)
does that help?

JTabbedPane - Adding Tab to the right

In my program, I am using a JTabbedPane, which shows several settings pages. Now i want to add a "help" screen to it, in a new tab, but I would like to align that tab to the right, the same effect like adding a Box.createHorizontalGlue() to a JMenuBar.
My question graphically: http://home.arcor.de/sidiousx/tab.gif
I searched the API and I tried subclassing JTabbedPane and changing the UI (but I'd rather not subclass the UI, because I use different Look and Feels), but it wass all useless. Anyone got an idea?

Hm and how would you do this?
I tried to sub-class BasicTabbedPaneUI:
class TabUI extends BasicTabbedPaneUI
    public Rectangle getTabBounds(int index, Rectangle rect)
        if (index == rects.length - 1) {
            rect = super.getTabBounds(index, rect);
            rect.x += 100;
            return rect;
        } else {
            return super.getTabBounds(index, rect);
}But:
1. It doesn't look good in Metal-LookAndFeel
2. It doesn't work ;) If the last Tab is selected, you can see some kind of shadow, where the tab should be (in this test), but nothing more.

POWL Adding TAB to Existing POWL Travel Assistant

Hello - (First time to post because my head is exploding),
   I want to add a tab to the travel assistant POWL so that they can see credit card receipts. (Wonder why this wasn't done initially because our TA's have to go in and actually create a report to see if their employees have receipts yet....ridiculous!)
   Anyway - the reason why my head is exploding:
   I'm using the existing application ID of FITV-POWL-TRIPS-ASSISTANT. I've created a new "Z" powl query to add via all the config and now I'm using the reports to check it.
POWL_D02 - I created a type named ZFITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC_ASSISTANT with a feeder of CL_FITV_POWL_FEEDER_TRIP_CCC.
It says my query ZFITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC_ASSISTANT is not active (type FITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC w/CL_FITV_POWL_FEEDER_TRIP_CCC)
QUESTION: How do I activate it??? (I'm debugging this now - will write a good wiki once figured out or with help from friends!)
POWL_D03 - Tells me the below.
QUESTION: Tells me that the "Q" type isn't assigned to the application. Ok - I've been through all the steps several times. What is the trick here. My TEST shows the changed tab order as I made the CC 1st; Exp tab 2nd; Req tab 3rd; Travel Plan tab 4th; These are ordered differently now w/exception of my new CC tab not showing up.
Thanks for any help! (We're on 7.02 with EHP4 using all abap)

FITV-POWL-TRIPS-ASSISTANT        T    ZFITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC_ASSISTANT    OK

Ok - I've figured out via debug (yeah) that an entry had to be added to the table POWL_TYPE_ROL with applid=FITV-POWL-TRIPS-ASSISTANT and type=FITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC even though my type is ZFITV_POWL_TRIPS_CCC_ASSISTANT.
Again - a wiki is coming soon.
Debug is always the answer it seems.
Just need to adjust the data in a class that I'll have to enhance in order to bring back CC receipts of the person being selected....
