Topic: Consistently Adding TabControl Pages

Does anybody have a method for consistently adding tab control pages to the TabControl?

I've just spent 15 minutes trying to add a page, but it's not creating a new tab (the page just becomes part of the existing tab). When I manually bump the TabControl.ItemCount +1 then add a page to the new tab, it goes ahead and creates a new page, so I now have a blank tab in the middle.

I've had trouble with this before, but usually a few tries will force the behaviour I need. Anybody know any tricks to get this working consistently?

Thanks in advance.

- Create a new form

- add a TabControl (TabControl1)

- add a TabControlPage1, set Index = 0

- into TabControlPage1(0) add a FlatEdit control, set Index=0

- add a PushButton cmdAddTab , next include the code below:

Private Sub cmdAddTab_Click()
    Dim i As Long
    i = TabControl1.ItemCount
    Load TabControlPage1(i)
    Set TabControlPage1(i).Container = TabControl1
    TabControl1.InsertItem i, "TabControlPage" & i + 1, TabControlPage1(i).hWnd, 0

    ' add a FlatEdit
    TabControl1.SelectedItem = i ' select last add tab

    Load FlatEdit1(i)

    Set FlatEdit1(i).Container = TabControlPage1(i)
    FlatEdit1(i).Visible = True
    FlatEdit1(i).Left = 360
    FlatEdit1(i).Top = 360
    FlatEdit1(i).Text = "FlatEdit1(" & i & ")"
End Sub

Hi Gibra,

Thanks for the advice. I actually meant in design-mode (dropping a TabControlPage on a TabControl with the mouse), but I wasn't clear about that, so my apologies.

In any case, perhaps it makes more sense to do it in code, if it is going to work consistently. I will give it a try.

Thanks again.

Sorry, I did not realize.

However, it is simple:
- Select the TabPage from the toolbox
- Click on the empty part of the TabControl (top right, to understand) and holding the left mouse button drag the mouse
