Hello,

I try to use dynamic tabs. As far as I work on my project everything was ok, untill now.

I would like to acess individual controls on panes (like edit boxes eet, just standard controls) and I do not know how...

This code
TAB_Verze["ALIAS_2"].EDT_Zadani

in debugger shows content of "EDT_Zadani" but the same code in application, in TRACE, or when I try to assign some value to EDT_Zadani, says that 'EDT_Zadani' element not found in 'TAB_Verze' element.

In code editor is ".EDT_Zadani" in red color because compiler knows that only during runtime.

I also tried indirection like this Trace({TAB_Verze[TAB_Verze]+".EDT_Zadani",indWindow}) but it says "'.EDT_Zadani' element unknown."

Any ideas please? Is it some general problem or just something specific to dynamic tabs?


Thank you in advance

i've made some progress.

I wanted to add lines to a table in an open dynamic tab.

Here is how i've done it:
PaneAlias1 is string = "ALIAS_1"
Trace(WIN_MDI_Tab.TAB_Customers_table[PaneAlias1]..Caption)

x is Control <- {PaneAlias1 + ".TABLE_NoName1",indControl}
Trace(x..Caption)
x.AddLine("X","Y")

Hi Petr,
It's explained quite well on the help page for the TabOpen() function
https://help.windev.com/…

// Handle a control found in an internal window of a pane
gsAlias is string = TabOpen(TAB_NoName1, "Initial caption", IW_Internal)
x is Control <- TAB_NoName1[gsAlias]
x.IW_Internal.EDT_NoName1.Width = 500


Hope this helps
Andrea

Why is the control "EDT_Zadani" showing in the debugger but not accessible in the application runtime, and what steps have you taken to ensure proper instantiation and accessibility within the scope of the dynamic tabs implementation?

Thank you guys!

I asked that in 2016 and because I did not solve this issue in reasonable time, I quit dynamic tabs. But now I want to use them somewhere else so I will go throught your comments and I believe I will be succesfull now.

Try using Indirection operators.
