Events & Tab Control Navigation Buttons

[TeresY]

In the attached example, I use a Tab Control with several pages, some of them being hidden.
To access them, I use the navigation buttons on the top right corner of the Tab.
Unfortunately, changing the pages using these navigation buttons does not trigger a "Value Change" event as it does when changing by clicking on the desired page.

This is visible in the upper control that is updated with the page name when the "Value Change" event is triggered.

How can I have the TabControl also triggering the "Value Change" event when selecting the pages with the navigation buttons ?

That's a good one, NI should have made the control fire the value change event in that case too. You could make a timeout event and check the value there (and fire an event for it if you wanted) but that's not very elegant. Personally I would go for multiline tabs, it's not often you see a tab with a scrollbar like that so the user's would probably find it more intuitive to have multiline tabs or another level of selection.

Mads is correct in all respects. His usability suggestion is a valid one, but we still need to fix the bug (and will). Sorry for the inconvenience.
