MDI and tabcontrols

[arnaud]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a child panel with standard title bar. The parent
panel is a tabcontrol created with easytab.fp. I tried to do it using
the SDK functions but I didn't succed. Is it possible ?

Hello

As described in this posting, there may be cases where mixing the Windows SDk functions along with the CVI UI library does not provide the desired results. You can simulate the standard title bar on child panels by using picture controls on the top to manually add the title bar. I agree it would look klunky, but this way, you would be able to use the first argument of the LoadPanel() function to specify the parent panel. I believe this would work with the easy tab control.

I hope this helps
