How do you discard EasyTabs?

[JBredeson]

I have an application that uses EasyTabs to display information for a multichannel device. Each channel has a tab devoted just to it's information. The number of channels varies and I want to minimize memory usage by discarding unneeded tabs without restarting the program. Is this possible?

Just call:

int EasyTab_RemovePanel (int Panel, int Tab_Control,
int Tab_Panel_Handle);

Then discard the panel with DiscardPanel.

Thanks. Where is this command. I can't find it in the list of easy tab commands. I have the upgrade to version CVI 5.5.

I apologize...

EasyTab_RemovePanel is not available in version 5.5. It is available in version 6.0 which will be released very shortly.

If you have version 5.5, the only option you have is to remove all the tabs and all of them back, except for the one you want to delete...
