Tab page label text color

[ttat]

I have a program that I need to change the color of the text on the tab depending on a certain case.  I can change the color of the tab itself, the color of the label and caption, and even what text is displayed on the tabs.  However, I can't seem to find a way to change the color of the text on the tab.

For example, if I had a tab with the labels "Page 1" and "Page 2."  For case A, I need "Page 1" and "Page 2" black, and for case B, I need "Page 1" and "Page 2" white.

I've tried making a property node and entering values for BGColor and FGColor, but it doesn't change the text color.  I also tried making a reference to each page and connecting that to a property node.  I then entered values for BGColor and FGColor for those pages, with IndependentLabel on and off.  Those cases didn't work either.  The only way I can change the color is by manually changing the color before I run the VI.

Have you tried FG Color/BG Color, available under Properties/Color in the Properties Node?

No, I'm afraid my suggestion doesn't work for text colour. Sorry about that.

You cannot change the text color of the Tab Page label, even in 8.5.

Maybe you can file for a feature request in NI or LAVA.

I see.  Thanks parthabe.  I still doesn't quite make sense why they let you change the color for everything in the tab except the color of the text.  Go figure...
