Hi.

In our app we have several general purpose views which are not closable, so they are always present on the tab control. when we have a lot of documents opened, the tabs for those general purpose views are shifted to the left and thus not visible. Is it possible to make a tab sticky, so it's always visible, independently of the number of opened tabs? If no, what might be an alternative? Perhaps creating two separate tab controls. One for the general purpose views, another for document views?

Thanks
Anton

Ok, I have spnet some time looking at the classes and looks like CXTPTabClientWnd supports tab groups - sounds like the feature, I'm looking for. But I can not figure out how to crate groups for the default implementation of CXTPTabClientWnd. Any hints here?

Thanks
Anton

Hi,

You need add TRUE paramter to Attach call.

Oleg,

I've done that, but id does not help much. How do I create separate tab groups and make the views to appear in a specific group?

Hi,

Call m_wndClient.OnWorkspaceCommand(XTP_ID_WORKSPACE_NEWVERTICAL); after you create View.

Hi Oleg,

Fist I have to mention that I'm still uwing version 12.0.1 of the toolkit.
Another issue I encountered, is that when I enable workspaces using the second parameter in the Attach function, my app assert here:

XTPTabClientWnd.cpp, line 1440
#ifdef _DEBUG
    if (m_bEnableGroups)
    {
        ASSERT((pChildWnd->GetStyle() & WS_MAXIMIZE) == 0);
    }
#endif

even tough I have added the WS_MAXIMIZE style in PreCreateWindow of my CGenericChildFrame derived class.

If I dismiss the assertion messages, the application still asserts somewhere in Windows's viewscrtl.cpp in function GetScrollPosition of CScrollView (one of my views is derived from CScrollView)
...
if (m_nMapMode != MM_TEXT)
    {
        ASSERT(m_nMapMode > 0); // must be set
...

Is it something to deal with the outdated version I'm using? Is there any demo project to see how to use Groups feature properly?

Thanks
Anton
