How to hide tab canvas

My form has a main canvas,over which there are 2 tabbed canvases with two tab pages each
1)1st tab canvas---A,B are tabbed pages
2)2nd tab canvas--C,D are tabbed pages
When A is pressed my second tabbed canvas should appear,whereas when B is pressed,I need to hide the 2nd tab canvas (or) will it be possible that, when I press B,a new window opens up(so that I need not hide canvas)
I am quite new to the forms,So any help would be grately appreciated..
Thank much!

Hi,
To hide the entire canvas, you can use HIDE_VIEW built-in.
HIDE_VIEW('<tab_canvas_name>');To show the canvas, use SHOW_VIEW built-in.
SHOW_VIEW('<tab_canvas_name>');Regards,
Manu.

Use SHOW_VIEW('Name of your tab_canvas') to programmatically show a canvas, use HIDE_VIEW('Name of your tab_canvas') to hide it.

How to create tab canvas from content

Hi,
I have created a form which has one content canvas and multiple stacked canvases. The content canvas displays the first page and then we hv to click on next to go to the next stacked canvas and so on. I want to try making it in tabs (tab canvas) and then I will decide which one looks better and performs good.
Can you guys please give me a detailed instruction on how to convert my content and stacked canvases to tab canvases. I have never done tab canvas. I tried one, I changed one of my present stacked canvas to tab but all the fields and texts were gone and there were just two tabs in it.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

I will do so:
I will create a blank tab canvas and then I will cut and copy in every tab page the frame of the content canvas
A tab page for every content canvas

How to hide tabs/fields in crmd_order

Dear All,
We have been using transaction CRMD_ORDER for creation of quote/contract.
We are in requirement to hide a few unused fields and a few unused tabs so that the user navigation is simplified and made error free.
How do we achieve this.

Hello Sivakumar,
I think also for Orders it should be possible to do Screen Configuration via Customizing. I had a similar request for the Transaction BP:

How to hide tab bar and application bar? In ID CS4.

Hello all!
Please help! Maybe someone have idea how to disable both?
It is only waste of space imo. Will not use them for sure...
Never opening more than 2-3 docs and than can easy use shortcut ctrl+`. Tabbed pages are good in web browser imho... Application bar is also just useless and (as menu itself) too fat. Most of those are in menu and have shortcuts. New features could be in menu as well.
Don't know why interface changed so much. And why this direction.
I know monitors are bigger nowdays etc - but are wider rather than higher.
Also - maybe new interface is great and ppl love it - but would be nice to have a choice. Some may prefere maximize workspace...

Thanks for responses...
Yes - mac users can be really happy. What about PC? What was wrong with classical menu?
Are designers really works with several documents the same time? So need to use tabs? Well maybe. But those who works with just one or two don't need it really. (Maybe easy solution could be: one doc = no tab, more = tabbed, would be more natural imvho. As well as turning it off for PC users as well.)
So really no trick similar to 'noallcaps'? Notabsbar? Noapplicationbar?
"You can turn off the tabs in the preferences, interface section."
Yes, I can - but no more place coz of this... Window isn't maximized in fact - is floating, what also personally I don't like. Anyway - it is the same size and use the same space as before... If u make next one doc it is even smaller, to show bottom one. Maximizing it to full screen... hiding menu and docked 'control panel' (OK this docked menu can float, np - but where is menu?).
As for maximized letter size document in CS3 vs CS4 it's 131% to 129% on my lcd. Sure - it is not much maybe. But why it must be less? Why to change smthng what was good and aesthetic solution. And why not allow people to use it in classical way? Are Mac users ("to keep the hardcore Mac users happy") better than others? :(

Help is appreciated. Thaks in advance

If you are looking to hide individual tabs on a tabbed canvas, refer to SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY

How to change the background color of a Tab Canvas

Hi All,
I accidentally changed existing background color of a tab Canvas to ' gray' which is not matching with main canvas (which has default).
How can I change background color to default. Please help me.
-Thanks

In the property palette of the tab page, click on the "Background Color" property and click the "Inherit" button on the top of the property palette, this will revert the value of the property to the default when the tab page was created which is <Unspecified>.
But if your tab page has inherited the color from a property class it will revert to what was specified in the property class.

How to change the number of tab in a Tab Canvas?

hello :)
any answers please ?

user9068133 - Posted: Nov 3, 2010 2:42 PM yes , it works very well on forms 10g, i know that is not a big problem but what can i do ! i have searched on google how to do that but i didn't find nothing .>
What exactly did you search for on Google? What is "that"?
Are you trying to add more tab pages to a Tabbed Canvas from the Forms Builder? If so, user13390506 is sort of right. Click on the "Canvases" node of the Object Navigator press the *<font color="green">green + </font>* button to add a new "Content" canvas to your form. Now you need to open the property pallet of the new canvas and change the "Canvas Type" property to "Tab." You will notice that the icon of the new canvas you created in the Object Navigator has changed. Click on the + node next to your new "Tab" canvas to reveal the "Tab Pages" node. Again, open this node (by clicking on the +) to reveal the individual tab pages. By default, Forms will create two tab pages. You can add a tab page in the "Tab Pages" node by clicking on the node and then clicking on the + button. To remove a tab page from the "Tab Pages" node, click on the tab page you want to remove and then click on the *<font color="red">red -</font>* (minus) button.
If you are trying to add a new tab page during the Form runtime - as I mentioned before - this is not possible.
Also, what is your Forms version?
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)

How to get block name in a tab canvas

I am trying to develope a form with six tabs on a tab canvas. Each tab pages contains a block derived from a database table and not items taken from the same table.
If I want to capture the name of the block in a tab page when page is changed, How can I do it.

If you like CRAZY PAIN you can parse dbms_utility.format_call_stack to get the trigger name and owner and then using all/user_triggers extract info of table name, which has such trigger defined on it.
Although I wouldn't do that :)
I'd simply create a variable in trigger definition containing table_name and/or another variable containing trigger name and use them.
It is especially easy if you are generating triggers for example for some auditing purposes.
