tweakster2010 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Hey all,I have a 2 part problem. First all, I use Menus prior to starting to use tabs on this particular program I am creating.File Menus worked flawlessly until I added in tabs. Now File Menus no longer work. Second question is how do you configure the colors for the Tabs body, they just appear white and in the help file its white as well. expandcollapse popupFunc Matrix() $DPSMatrixCalc = GUICreate("DPS Matrix Calculator", 301, 506) ;GUISetBkColor(0x00FF00) GUICtrlCreateTab(5,5,290,480) GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Installations") ;GUISetBkColor(0x00FF00) ;GUICtrlSetColor(-1,0x00FF00) ;$DPSCalc = GUICtrlCreateLabel("DPS Matrix Calculator Installations", 8, 25, 300, 28) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 14, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif") ;labels $dpslab1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Desktop", 8, 92, 44, 17) $dpslab2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Laptop", 8, 114, 37, 17) $dpslab3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Monitor", 8, 140, 39, 17) ;inputs $dpsinput1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 88, 88, 25, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_NUMBER)) $dpsinput2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 88, 112, 25, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_NUMBER)) $dpsinput3 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 88, 136, 25, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_NUMBER)) ;totals $dpstotal1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 176, 88, 65, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_READONLY,$ES_NUMBER)) $dpstotal2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 176, 112, 65, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_READONLY,$ES_NUMBER)) $dpstotal3 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 176, 136, 65, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_READONLY,$ES_NUMBER)) ;automatic calculations and labels for them $dpslabline = GUICtrlCreateLabel("______________________________________________", 8, 288, 280, 17) $dpslab9 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Totals", 8, 315, 33, 17) $dpsinput9 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 88, 312, 25, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_READONLY,$ES_NUMBER)) $dpstotal9 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 176, 312, 65, 21, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_INPUT,$ES_READONLY,$ES_NUMBER)) ;Button $Reset = GUICtrlCreateButton("Reset", 206, 432, 65, 33) $FileMenu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("&File") $FileUpdateMatrix = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("&Update Matrix", $FileMenu) $FileItemspacer = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("", $FileMenu,3) $FileItemExit = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("E&xit", $FileMenu) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 Sleep(10) Switch GuiGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $FileItemExit Exit EndSwitch WEnd EndFuncI did remove quite a bit, the issue im having is specifically on FileItemExit not exiting the program when chosen as the primary point of testing. As well I left the commented attempts of changing the color for the Tabs but I am just missing the point to it or should I convert the tab to a variable then set it with the control ID to color and just didnt go deep enough? Sorry for any rambling and thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 It is important to close the tab structure by creating a final tabitem control with a null text - GUICtrlCreateTabItem(""). If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

tweakster2010 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Thank you all for the responses. I have been having a bit of a hard time navigating and searching through the new forum layout which is likely why i didn't locate those. 90% reason being I do most of my research while working on it while at work and the page loads pretty obnoxiously slow(our security). @BrewmanHH works flawlessly again, Many thanks I would not have realized that but I noticed it was in the Helpfile with ; end tabitem definitionand I just over thought it.... :/ @Melba23 that link was perfect with the code for the Tabs :D. @Water also thanks a bunch for the suggestions! I normally see what you guys post and try to read every bit of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
