Tab controling Tab

[torkil]

My goal is following

When i press the A tab on the test tab control, the B tab shall disepear in test tab control and only the A tab should be visible in test2 tab control( not greyed out) . The same thing shall happen when B are pressed, that wil say only will be visible.

In other word , i want to use one tab control to control another tabcontrols visible tabs

You can create a property node of a tab control to give you references to all of the pages (a 1-D array).  From there, you can create a property node on a particular reference and set the visibility of that page.

Thx for the answer.

I hav e worked on this issue for sometime now and the problem seem to be getting the pages i want to dissipear to actually dissepear. Now they only gets greyed out and still visible . Need to remove them completly.

Im also using and case to control the stages.

PageEnable allows you to enable/disable a page.

PageVisibility allows you to hide or show the page.

In your VI, where is your while loop?  It will only run one time.

You don't need all the indices wired for the Index Array.  By default they start at 0 and increment from there.

Thx for the tip

But why are the page still visible when i have set them to false in visibility?

[RavensFan]

I don't see that.

How are you running your VI?

I asked where your while loop is.  Please don't tell me you are using the Run Continuously button.

If you are, don't.  If  you are, you might be running so superfast you aren't giving the CPU time to do screen updates.

Pay careful attention how you design your user interface.  One of the things that can quickly be coming annoying is when you click on a tab, then only to have the tab to appear to disappear underneath you.  Clicking the tab on the left to change the right side tabs seems okay.  But clicking the tab on the left and having it change the tab pages on the left is annoying.

Hey

Im using a while loop now but still when i go from page 2 to 3 the page 6 stick with me.

All other combination seems to work . Why

Problem solved here.

(Don't create another whole new thread on the same issue.  It wastes people's time becuase you don't give them the benefit of seeing what has happened on the issue already.):smileymad:
