Hi Guis,

 

I need to create keyboard shortcut to navigate the tabs and activate them, but I could not use the code below:

#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>


HotKeySet("^{TAB}", "_TabRight")
HotKeySet("^+{TAB}", "_TabLeft")


$gui = GUICreate("test",450, 300)

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 24, 425, 201)
$TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 1")
$lbContagemGrupos2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("aaaa", 50, 50)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0000FF)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
$TabSheet2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")
$TabSheet3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _TabRight()
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($Tab1, $CurPos + 1)
    $tab = "$TabSheet" & $CurPos
    GUICtrlSetState($TabSheet1 + $CurPos, $GUI_SHOW)
    Return
EndFunc

Func _TabLeft()
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($Tab1, $CurPos - 1)
    $tab = "$TabSheet" & $CurPos
    GUICtrlSetState($TabSheet1 + $CurPos, $GUI_SHOW)
    Return
EndFunc


Exit

 

can you help me?

Try this.  It uses GUISetAccelerators instead of hotkey.  This is probably better since you are trying to override default Windows hotkeys.  GUISetAccelerators will only do it while your GUI is active.  Of course you should probably add additional logic to make sure that you are not trying to set the tab index less than the first or greater than the last tab.  Also, you didn't need the GUISetState functions in the _TabLeft and _TabRight functions.

For the record, your original logic would have worked by just taking out the GUISetState functions in your _TabRight() and _TabLeft() functions.  However, as stated above, you only want to use those accelerators while your GUI is active, not system-wide.

 

#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>


;~ HotKeySet("^{tab}\r", "_TabRight")
;~ HotKeySet("^+{tab}", "_TabLeft")


$gui = GUICreate("test",450, 300)

$PrevTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()
$NextTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 24, 425, 201)
$TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 1")
$lbContagemGrupos2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("aaaa", 50, 50)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0000FF)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
$TabSheet2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")
$TabSheet3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")

Global $aAccels[2][2] = [["^+{tab}", $PrevTab], ["^{tab}", $NextTab]]
GUISetAccelerators($aAccels)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        Case $PrevTab
            _TabLeft()
        Case $NextTab
            _TabRight()
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _TabRight()
    ConsoleWrite("Right" & @CRLF)
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($Tab1, $CurPos + 1)
    $tab = "$TabSheet" & $CurPos
;~     GUICtrlSetState($TabSheet1 + $CurPos, $GUI_SHOW)
    Return
EndFunc

Func _TabLeft()
    ConsoleWrite("Left" & @CRLF)
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($Tab1, $CurPos - 1)
    $tab = "$TabSheet" & $CurPos
;~     GUICtrlSetState($TabSheet1 + $CurPos, $GUI_SHOW)
    Return
EndFunc


Exit

Label aaaa is in TAB1, but when using the shortcuts it is still shown in TAB2.
I validated that it is not enabling the TAB and just walking through them.

I thought your issue was that it wasn't recognizing your hotkeys?

I'm not being critical, just factual.  I looked at your code, and other than changing tabs using a hotkey, I don't have a clue what you're trying to do.

So maybe you can start with a detailed explanation of what it is you are trying to accomplish, what results you are expecting, and any other information that may be be relevant to someone trying to help you help yourself.

I'm sorry, my English is bad.

In the code that you helped me I can walk the TABS, but only the TABS are changed, the contents always remain the one of TAB1.

Example:
In TAB1 there is a label with the caption "aaaaa", when it changes to TAB2 the contents of TAB1 appear, so it has not changed to the contents of TAB2.

It looks like it does not activate the next TAB just browsing between them.

Your problem is by creating the GUI, corected:

$PrevTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()
$NextTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 24, 425, 201)
$TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 1")
$lbContagemGrupos2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("aaaa", 50, 50)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0000FF)
$TabSheet2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")
$TabSheet3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem(" ")
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")

GUISetState()

GUICtrlCreateTabItem("") must be after last tabsheet is created.

Do you mean like this?  Notice that I used _GUICtrlTab_ActivateTab() instead of GuiControlSetState() or GuiControlSetData().

 

#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>


;~ HotKeySet("^{tab}\r", "_TabRight")
;~ HotKeySet("^+{tab}", "_TabLeft")


$gui = GUICreate("test",450, 300)

$PrevTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()
$NextTab   = GUICtrlCreateDummy()

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 24, 425, 201)
$TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 1")
$lb1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("aaaa", 50, 50)
$TabSheet2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 2")
$lb2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("bbbb", 50, 50)
$TabSheet3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tabsheet 3")
$lb3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("cccc", 50, 50)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")

Global $aAccels[2][2] = [["^+{tab}", $PrevTab], ["^{tab}", $NextTab]]
GUISetAccelerators($aAccels)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        Case $PrevTab
            _TabLeft()
        Case $NextTab
            _TabRight()
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _TabRight()
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    If $CurPos < _GUICtrlTab_GetItemCount($Tab1) - 1 Then
        _GUICtrlTab_ActivateTab($Tab1, $CurPos + 1)
        ConsoleWrite("Tab Right" & @CRLF)
    EndIf
EndFunc

Func _TabLeft()
    $CurPos = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($Tab1)
    If $CurPos > 0 Then
        _GUICtrlTab_ActivateTab($Tab1, $CurPos - 1)
        ConsoleWrite("Tab Left" & @CRLF)
    EndIf
EndFunc

Tks!

 

Good Work.
