Gui Tabs

[Naveed]

I have a multitab gui and i need a way of knowing which tab is active?

I use the following for my hotkey function

HotKeySet("{Enter}", "onEnter")

Func onenter()
    If WinActive($GUI) Then
        Go()
    Else
        HotKeySet("{Enter}")
        Send("{Enter}")
        HotKeySet("{Enter}", "onenter")
    EndIf
EndFunc

However this activates the GO function regardless of which tab i am on?

Would it be possible to know which tab is active and activate a different function depending on the tab?

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

Naveed,

You use GUICtrlRead like this:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

HotKeySet("{Enter}", "onEnter")

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hTab = GUICtrlCreateTab(10, 10, 480, 480)

$hTab_0 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab 0")
$hTab_1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab 1")
$hTab_2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab 2")
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")

GUISetState()

While 1

    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch

WEnd

Func onEnter()

    $iIndex = GUICtrlRead($hTab) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    MsgBox(0, "Active Tab", "Tab " & $iIndex & " is active")

EndFunc
