CXTTabCtrl is our old class derived from CTabCtrl - we can't control most of metrics of standard CTabCtrl

CXTPTabContrl is derived from CWnd and don't use any standard controls.

 

For the above question...

I found that there is a Function called

CXTPTabManagerItem::GetHandle ( ) which can get the HWND of the object associated with the TAB.

 

When we use CXTPTabManager::GetSelectedItem ( ) which returns

CXTPTabManagerItem. I think , From this manager item we can get the object associated with the TAB. In the above case it retrieves the html view associated with the tab.

 

Correct me if am wrong.

 

I wanted to create a tab control, basically to have multiple browser window in tab format like IE7.

 

I tried using the following classes...

CXTTabCtrl.

CXTPTabControl.

 

I found some pros and cons with both of these classes.

 

CXTTabCtrl contains some direct functions like...

AddView ( ... )

GetActiveView ( ... )

GetView ( index )

 

Which is very much useful for me to add a html view at runtime and manage these views by other functions.

 

Whereas CXTPTabControl, I din't find any functions basically to get the active view or get view based on index.  But this class has got some good UI stuffs which is not available in the other class like...

SetAppearence ( ... )

SetColor ( ... )

SetPosition ( ... )

SetLayout ( ... )

 

Looking at the CXTPTabControl UI is better than CXTTabCtrl.

 

Is there a way that CXTTabCtrl can support all the above UI functions or

using CXTPTabControl - can i access the views associate with each tab.

 

Am not sure what i have tried is corect or not.

Just update me if am wrong.

 

Even thought of using "CXTPTabClientWnd", but I want to create the above in SDI application.

 

Also let me know is there any other better class to get the above

functionality.

 

Thanks in advance.
