Hi,

I added a group box on a tab control with several tabs.

In code I set groupbox.visible=false

When I click off and then back on that tab, the group box is now visible again.

It should stay invisible. It looks like controls inside the tab are losing their visible state on tab click.

Have you put TabControlPage controls on your tabs, and then put the GroupBoxes on those TabControlPage controls? Or are your GroupBoxes directly on the TabControl (no TabControlPages)?

Hi jbpro,

The controls were placed directly on the tabs.

This is because when you use the Tab Control Page it hides the tab theme. (The color of the page over-rides the theme that the tab is using).

Thanks for the response
