    I like to put several OptionButton groups on a TabControl/TabControlPage. If I don't group my OptionButtons, then it looks fine, but it doesn't work correct. Other example from Windows 2k how I like to use TabControl with grouped OptionButtons: 
![]() -VB6 SP6 on Win2k SP4 
-TabControl 10.4 with TabControlPages -WinXP.Luna.cjstyles file from CodeJock samples What am I doing wrong? How does this work?  |

   Hello,
 
   
  I think that is better to group options buttons in a picture box instead of a non visible frame (because a frame has not a hwnd property). 
For me it solve the problem. 
Hope it will help.

    Remark: The frames of my samples are not invisible, I just set the BorderStyle property to 0=none. Even if I use a PictureBox, it doesn't look good. Look at the new screenshot. SourceCode:    SkinFramework1.ApplyWindow Me.hWnd Visible Frames are very important to group the controls on a TabControlPage. Look at the Windows 2000 folder options screenshot above. In the sample SkinMDISample on frmProperties I looks like it works. But there's a cheat: The OptionButtons are drawn on the TabControlPage itself and not on the frame. With this method you can not have multiple independent OptionButton groups on one TabControlPage.    |

    I don't want to install and deploy more controls as needed. And a question is, if SkinFramework can adapt a new styles (e.g. WinVista) on the Innovasys FramePlus control. I would prefer a solution with CodeJock controls. 
![]() Is this not possible with the CodeJock TabControl and SkinFramework? 
If it's not possible now, will this it be possible in further releases?
