Autosequence dialog forms: how to create forms with more than 3 TAB layers?

[Bob46]

Have successfully created a dialog with 3 tabs, each linking to a different layer. However, the dialog editor appears to be limited to allowing 3 tabs only, wheras for my application I require up to 6 tab'd form / layers. Please advise. Thanks.

Hello Bob

I was able to create more than 3 tabs by:

1) Adding more layers to the dialog. With dialog showing, select "Edit / Layers" from top menu bar. Add as many layers as you wish to have buttons for.

2) With tab selection on the dialog. Copy and paste one of the tab buttons, add as many as you need.

3) Modify the code associated with each NEW button. See the code below, it was modified for adding a 4th button.

Sub Layer4_EventClick()
Dim This : Set This = Layer4
This.ButtonShape = 2
LayerOneButton.ButtonShape = 1
LayerTwoButton.ButtonShape = 1
Dialog.Layers("Layer1") = False
Dialog.Layers("Layer2") = False
Dialog.Layers("Layer3") = False
Dialog.Layers("Layer4") = True
This.BackColor = vbWhite
LayerOneButton.BackColor = -1

LayerTwoButton.BackColor = -1
LayerThreeButton.BackColor = -1
End Sub

Hope this helps
