I see that the CXTTabCtrl sends the TCN_SELCHANGE message when a tab has changed, but what I really need is notification that it's about to change, before the screen gets repainted. the TCN_SELCHANGING message should solve my problem, but I don't see it in the class. Am I correct that the TCN_SELCHANGING message has not been implemented in CXTTabCtrl? If so, is there a workaround? When might we see it implemented?

Thanks!

Hello,

CXTTabCtrl sends TCN_XT_SELCHANGING instead.

Thanks Oleg, I found the code that you spoke of. Unfortunately, it isn't quite going to work for what I am trying to do.

Is there a way to make clicking on a tab NOT change to that tab? i.e. ignore the tab selection from the mouse?

I have retrofitted a tabbed control with a next/previous button setup to control switching the tabs, and now I'd like to use the tabs only as labels. A bit unconventional, I know, but there it is :)

Thanks again!
