TabNavigator - Invisible tabs

Does anybody know if it is possible to hide a single tab
inside a TabNavigator?
The "visible" property doesn't seem to do anything.
Thanks!

I went to the CSS tab and nothing looked strange and all of the boxes were checked.It wouldn't look strange, just that the way the CSS is being applies is now different.
Under the script tab, I did a search for doctype on my app page but there was non in the script.
There was nothing that has x-ua or documentmode as well. Edit your page template, and add this line as right after the <head> tag:
<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=edge" >
It will tell IE to run with the highest standard rendering available.
But it did have css references. Here they are.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/j/css/apex_4_1.min.css" type="text/css" />

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/j/libraries/jquery-ui/1.8.14/themes/base/jquery-ui.min.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript">var apex_img_dir = "/j/", htmldb_Img_Dir = apex_img_dir;</script><script src="/j/javascript/apex_4_1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>Right, that's all standard from APEX.
One of the words that disappeared is version and nothing seem to look strange but here it is
<span class="OffC"><a href="javascript:apex.submit('T_VERSION');">Version</a></span><b>|</b>Since you found it in the HTML, then is just not being displayed anymore or not visible. Probably a similar problem as with the tabs.
Try the meta tag and lest see what results that yields.

How to create an invisible tab control

In his excellent book, The LabVIEW Style Book, Peter Blume advocates the use of an "invisible tab control". His front panel, while consisting of a large tab control with several headings that can be clicked, shows absolutely no framing around those headings or around the control as a whole. I have not been able to do it. Except: just now, while clicking around with the color tool, I did it by accident. The entire frame of a "Modern" Tab Control vanished, leaving nothing but the page titles showing! But I don't know what I did, and I cannot do it again. Please, how do you do that?

hi,
in front panel --> press "shift" and right click. and you will get color control.
Then select the last option. that is brush.
right click the object you want to make it invisible. then go to "T" in the top. then press "SPACE BAR" in your keyboard. then you can find the bottom of the pallet. there will be a big " T". Befor that there was 2. now only one. It means fore color ang back ground color. it will make the complete control. invisible.
Check it out...

Flex 3 TabNavigator getting tab name when tab clicked

Hi All, I am using Flex 3.
I have <mx:TabNavigator id="dbtabs" width="100%" height="100%" click="changeTabs()" />
I am also adding tabs dynamically.
In the grand scheme of things, I want to let a user add tabs as needed and chose what content is on the tab. This is saved data, so when they come back I need to reload their saved settings.
What I am trying to do is find out how to get the index of the tab when it is clicked. Right now I have to click the tab then click in the vbox to get the selectedIndex. Is there a way to get the selectedIndex as soon as the tab is clicked?
Thanks.

private function handleTabClick(evt:IndexChangedEvent):void
       var i:int = evt.newIndex;
<mx:TabNavigator change="handleTabClick(event)">
        <mx:Canvas width="200" height="200" label="Tab 1"/>
        <mx:Canvas width="200" height="200" label="Tab 2"/>
</mx:TabNavigator>

TabNavigator's tab dynamic visibility handling problem.

Hello All,
I am facing problem in TabNavigator component.
My application has one tabnavigator with 4 tabs. (T1,T2,T3,T4)
Tabs visibility is depend on data which are load in those tabs.
If data is getting Null from database for T2, T2 tab will not displayed. Only other 3 are displayed.
I have tried this....
myTabNavigator.getTabAt(myTabNavigator.getChildIndex(myT2tab)).visible = false;
myTabNavigator.getTabAt(myTabNavigator.getChildIndex(myT2tab)).includeInLayout = false;
but problem is if once tab is hide by above code, will not visible again by setting visibile & includeInLayout property to true.
Anyone else noticed this, have any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi Tejas S Patel,
I dont see any such kind of problem...I have run a test...it works perfectly fine.
Below is the sample test I have done..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:TabNavigator width="103" id="tabone">

TabNavigator: Adding Tab Dynamic

Hi,
I would like to create an application that is using a
TabNavigator to show different information (tabs) when user press
different buttons. I create a button and call a function to add a
tab into tabnavigator to show a custom control (base on Panel). I
try it and the program can add the tab and show the correct
information. But I don't know how to add the label on the created
tab. Also, can it be any simple method to check it the information
is shown already in tabnavigator?
The function is listed below:
private function addUserRequest():void {
var ur:DisplayObject = tabControl.addChild(new userRequest);
var tabNdx:int; // Tab Index
tabNdx = tabControl.getChildIndex(ur);
tabControl.selectedIndex = tabControl.getChildIndex(ur);
return;
//end of function
Thanks a lot!
Wilson

If
UserRequest is a custom component which extends
Panel, the label of the panel will be used as the label of
the tab when it's added to the
TabNavigator.
In order to do this you'll need to define
ur as a compatible type which has a label property, i.e. as
a
Panel or as a
UserRequest (or whatever it's called):
var ur:Panel = new UserRequest(); // UserRequest is subclass
of Panel so compatible.
ur.label = "A Label"; // I can set this because I am a panel
tabControl.addChild(ur);
I'm not sure I understand your last question. Do you want to
know if the tab with that label already exists?

TabNavigator and Tab Alignment

I have a TabNavigator control with 6 different tabs. I want the last tab to be right aligned while the other 5 are left aligned. I know this is possible because I;'ve done it before but like a dumbazz I forgot where i put that code snippet and now can't find it anywhere. Please help if ya can... Thanks!!!
This is the code I have in place to create the tabs, it is the terminateCoCanvasID tab I need to right align.
<mx:TabNavigatorid="DBTabNavID" width="100%" height="100%" change="ChangeProvTab()" creationPolicy="all" >
<mx:Canvas id="companyCanvasID" label="Company Information" height="100%" width="100%" >
    <DBs:db_CoInfo id="dbCoInfoID" width="100%" height="100%" />
</mx:Canvas>
<mx:Canvas id="dbAssociatesCanvasID" label="Associates" height="100%" width="100%" >
    <DBs:db_Associates id="dbAssociateFormID" width="100%" height="100%" />

</mx:Canvas>
<mx:Canvas id="terminateCoCanvasID" label="Terminate Company" height="100%" width="100%" >
   
</mx:Canvas>
</mx:TabNavigator>
Thanks in advance for hellping me through this brainfart...

Hi Rusty-Nails,
Set tab stops in Format Panel > Text > Layout > Tabs
Click on the + to insert a tab stop. Choose Decimal from the Pop-Up Menu.
On the Menu Bar, View > Show Rulers.
There is a tab character after 'text'.
I dragged the tab stop (blue circle) to another position.

Ian.

TabNavigator ALL tabs unselected

I am having a problem with the tab navigator. When I clear it
and repopulated it programmatically, it shows all of the tabs as
unselected even though it is showing the contexts of the 1st tab.
I've mocked up a sample that reproduces the issue (see
below). Open the page and click the Rebuild button. Notice that
both tabs are showing as unselected. Also note that clicking sel1st
which sets the selectedIndex to 0 on the tab navigator has no
effect. It is interesting to note that clicking selLast does work
and once that is done sel1st also works.
The problem appears to be caused by removing all of the
children and the later (after the navigator has redrawn?) adding
tabs.
Has anyone seen this problem? Am I missing something?

How do you close those tabs?
Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.<br />
You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />

How to make tab strip invisible?

hi Gurus,
i had used a tabstrip in my screen 100. now i want make my strip invisible initailly.
if certail condition is satisfied than i want to show my tabstrip.
can anybody help me this,
thanks in advance.

Hi vipul,
Tabstrip Controls
Tabstrip controls are made up of pushbuttons (the tabs) and several subscreens. Each tab has its own subscreen. These tabs are part of the main screen and are therefore displayed in the field list of the dialog box for the main screen. Subscreen fields are displayed in other dialog boxes.
According to how a tabstrip has been constructed internally:
● Either a sole dialog box is displayed for the subscreen that belongs to the tab that is currently active, or
● Dialog boxes are displayed for all subscreens that belong to the tabstrip control.
If an invisible tab is set to active by the application transaction, different subscreens are selected for those tabs remaining that actually belong to other tabs. If the subscreens are invisible, it is also possible that an empty screen will be displayed.
Technical Background:
The transaction variant sets another tab (the remaining tab furthest left) to active. This additional active tab is, however, unknown in the application transaction, which assumes that its tab is active and selects the corresponding subscreen. If this subscreen has been faded out using the transaction variant, then an empty screen is displayed.

TabNavigator style

My application:
<mx:Style>
.a1{
backgroundImage: Embed("image.png");
</mx:Style>
<mx:TabNavigator tabStyleName="a1">
<mx:VBox label="Accounts" width="300" height="150"
>

</mx:VBox>
<mx:VBox label="Stocks" width="300" height="150">

</mx:VBox>
<mx:VBox label="Futures" width="300" height="150">

</mx:VBox>
</mx:TabNavigator>
I want to put in my TabNavigator's tabs background image.
Setting -backgroundImage: Embed("image.png");- in tab's style
doesn't help. What should I change in my code?

I am having the same problem trying to set a background image
on my tab style.
I also noticed, tabStyleName="tabStyle" and
selectedTabTextStyleName="selectedTab" both work, however
firstTabStyleName="firstTab" and lastTabStyleName="firstTab" don't
seem to have any kind of effect on the tabs.
I tried using background-image: Embed(image.png); and
backgroundImage: Embed(image.png) as well as url()s but nothing
worked. Has anyone had success applying a background image to Tab
Navigator tabs or is this style attribute not working?

Tab initialisation

Hi,
I am a newbie to flex.
I have a tabNavigator (two tabs/two canvas) in my mxml file.
I need to populate some fields in both the tabs with some
defaults.
I am able to set values to fields in the first tab but when i
do the same for the 2nd tab
flex throws an error saying cannot access property of null
object reference.
Seems like i need to initialize something but no clue.
Can some one help me.
Below is my code.
private function populateCreateData():void {
cparkConstruct = new CallParkingBean();
timeout.text=cparkConstruct.timeOut; // --> (works fine
in 1st tab)
advRepeat.text=cparkConstruct.limit; // -->(error for
setting field in 2nd tab.)
advTimeout.text=cparkConstruct.timeOut; // -->(error for
setting field in 2nd tab.)
<mx:TabNavigator x="49" y="78" id="cparktab" width="524"
height="374">
<mx:Canvas label="Basic" width="484" id="basicCanvas"
height="312">
<mx:TextInput x="180" y="135" width="89"
id="timeout"/>
</mx:Canvas>

Thanks in advance.

Hi
Have a look at the creationPolicy property. I think you need
to set this = all to force creation of objects beyond the initial
page...

Graphe invisible

Bonjour,
Je suis en train de développer une application sous labview 8.2 et j'ai un soucis d'affichage pour mes graphes. En effet, je dispose de deux graphes en face avant (Graphe 1 et Graphe 2) qui au lancement sont tous les deux visbles avec leur courbe. Je souhaite en rendre un seul visible sur les deux à l'aide d'un sélecteur. Mon problème est que lorsque par exemple je mets Graphe 1 visible et Graphe 2 invisible, la courbe sur Graphe 1 disparait (même constat si j'affiche Graphe 2 et rend Graphe 1 invisble, la courbe n'apparait plus sur Graphe 2).
Merci pour votre aide et bonne journée.
Djamel
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Bonjour Djamel,
effectivement, les courbes disparaissent car elles ne sont pas réécrites sur le graph. Votre solution est plutôt bonne : pour faire ce que vous voulez je vois deux solutions
1. utiliser des onglets (Graphe invisible tab.vi)
2. réécrire le graph après l'avoir rendu visible/invisible (Graphe invisible modified.vi)
Bien cordialement,

? at the beggining of each line of TOC when I save to pdf?

When I save a Framemaker 11 file to pdf I get a question mark inside of the > character at the beginning of each line of the generated table of contents in the pdf file. I have done everything that I can think of and can't get rid of it.

The right angle bracket is FrameMaker's way of representing the
invisible tab character. That's why it only shows in FM, not the PDF.
You can use Alt v s to toggle display of invisible characters. It's
usually best to leave them turned on.
The question mark is FrameMaker's way of displaying a character that
does not exist in your current font. For example, you might choose a
character to use as a bullet for each item in a list. If you later
change the paragraph to use a font that does not have that character
defined, FrameMaker can no longer display it and shows you a question
mark instead.
So I think you need to look for that character in your file and replace
it with something that will display. If it displays in FM, it should
display in the PDF. Right now, it's displaying in neither. There are two
places I can think of to look for it:
1. Choose the affected paragraph format-- for example, Heading 1-- and
look in its autonumbering properties. Someone may have assigned a
character there. If this was meant to be a bullet, insert the bullet
building block in place of whatever is there now.
2. The other place to look is on the file's reference page (Esc v R).
This is where you set up how FM content displays in generated files.
Here, the paragraph format might be called Heading1TOC, for example.

Loading one JComponet Window then closing and Loading a different Window

Hello and how is everyone. I believe there is two ways I cam make this Java desktop application work, but I am not sure which is the best or doable. I have right now a Component tab window that pops up ask a user to select an option. Then they hit a next button. From here I want to close the JTabbed window the user was just in and open up another one that was based of off the selection. Is this doable
The other idea I had was have one Component tab window and set visible and invisible Tabs based on user's choices. Is this possible too? Thanks

You can add a "control-class" to your project. In basic it only opens your start dialog and is used as actionlistener for your "Next" buttons. This actionlistener loads (according to the action command you set for the buttons) your next window. To close the current window, the best is to make your dialog/window to a actionlistener which hide/close/dispose the "current"-window (don't forget to add it to your button ;) )
To your other idea, you can change the ContentPane, or you use the Card Layout (I think it was) which holds the tabs you want.

HT5525 Help adding text to the bottom of iPhoto book pages?

Hi -
I am working on a deadline (of course) to get an iPhoto book done for my parents' anniversary.
I have my photos placed, and have planned well to know how many characters can fit into each space below and next to photos in the text boxes provided.
I just tried my first page... it's a 6-photo page, with a little box at the bottom for a blurb.
When I click on it, it lights up blue, suggesting the space I have to work in.
Now, the frustrating part: As I start to type, it starts on the left side of the bottom of the page, but I only get about half-way across, and some invisible TAB seems to be in the text box. It starts my next word on the next line. I tried to use the align button, but even if I center the text, it stays on the far right side of the page, and significantly limits the number of words/characters I can use. Even if it causes me to be brief, which I can do, these tabs cause the look of the page to be out of balance.
Do you have any idea how I can get rid of tabs??
Thanks so much!
In a panic!

What version of iPhoto and book theme are you using?

'Find/Change' fails for 'Change All'

'Change All' fails where I use ' End of Paragraph' [^p] and 'Change Format'. Change/Find is fine but need to process a considerable amount of text.
e.g.
I am asking to change:
ABC £1,000 ^t £1000
to
ABC £1,000 ^p £1000
whilst changing format to new paragraph style, so it ends up like this:
ABC £1,000
£1000

OK. Thank you fo your patience
This is a real example.
I have this in a spreadsheet:
I HJN
£29,995
8 DCN
£5,995
I ERK
£29,995
EBK I
£29,995
YEB I
£29,995
SOJ I
£27,995
I paste it into the InDesign text box and it looks like thus:
I HJN >> £29,995
8 DCN >> £5,995
I ERK >> £29,995
EBK I >> £29,995
YEB I >> £29,995
SOJ I >> £27,995
['>>' = invisible tab mark]
If I do 'find' ^t and change to ^p whilst specifying different paragraph style [which you would have to invent to replicate], I get:
I HJN
£29,995
8 DCN
£5,995
I ERK
£29,995
EBK I
£29,995
YEB I
£29,995
SOJ I
£27,995
But If I do it all in one go ['Change All'] Everything goes to the new style.
