What if your focused on an input box? It won't work. The post before yours will.

Take a close look at the picture attached and you will see that the tab IS highlighted ... and it will work always (even when you can't get the tab handle).

The previous post assumed that either you can get the tab handle either the GUI was created by AutoIt ...

SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example script

Look at _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel() / _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel()...

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>

$GUI = GUICreate("Test Script", 300, 200)

$hTab = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 10, 260, 150)

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab1")
$Tab2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab2")
$Tab3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab3")

;GUICtrlSetState($Tab2, $GUI_SHOW)

GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")

$Switch_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Switch Next", 20, 170, 80, 20)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Switch_Button
            $iCurrent_TabIndex = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($hTab)
            $iNext_TabIndex = $iCurrent_TabIndex
            
            Switch $iCurrent_TabIndex
                Case 0, 1
                    $iNext_TabIndex += 1
                Case 2
                    $iNext_TabIndex = 0
            EndSwitch
            
            _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($hTab, $iNext_TabIndex)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

And for the external usage:

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>

$GUI = GUICreate("Test Script", 300, 200)

$hTab = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 10, 260, 150)

GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")

$Switch_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Switch Next", 20, 170, 80, 20)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Switch_Button
            ;This handle can by taken from any window that have standard SysTabControl
            $hWnd_Tab = ControlGetHandle("Test Script", "", "SysTabControl321")
            _GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd_Tab)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd)
    Local $iItems_Count = _GUICtrlTab_GetItemCount($hWnd)

    Local $iNext_TabIndex = $iCurrent_TabIndex
    
    Switch $iCurrent_TabIndex
        Case 0 To $iItems_Count-2
            $iNext_TabIndex += 1

Have you tried what i posted? replace "My Title" with your window title, and try it:

#include <GuiTab.au3>

$hWnd_Tab = ControlGetHandle("My Title", "", "SysTabControl321")
_GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd_Tab)

Func _GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd)
    Local $iItems_Count = _GUICtrlTab_GetItemCount($hWnd)
    Local $iCurrent_TabIndex = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($hWnd)
    Local $iNext_TabIndex = $iCurrent_TabIndex
    
    Switch $iCurrent_TabIndex
        Case 0 To $iItems_Count-2
            $iNext_TabIndex += 1
        Case Else
            $iNext_TabIndex = 0
    EndSwitch
    
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($hWnd, $iNext_TabIndex)
EndFunc

Hi all, I've implemented the following code in one of my scripts. It successfully selects the tab itself - but the contents of the tab do not actually update. In other words - if I start on Tab 1, and then change to Tab2, Tab2 will appear selected but the contents of Tab1 stay visible. I've tried _WinAPI_RedrawWindow to see if that would help, but it appears not to.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Have you tried what i posted? replace "My Title" with your window title, and try it:

#include <GuiTab.au3>

$hWnd_Tab = ControlGetHandle("My Title", "", "SysTabControl321")
_GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd_Tab)

Func _GUICtrlTab_SwitchNext($hWnd)
    Local $iItems_Count = _GUICtrlTab_GetItemCount($hWnd)
    Local $iCurrent_TabIndex = _GUICtrlTab_GetCurSel($hWnd)
    Local $iNext_TabIndex = $iCurrent_TabIndex
    
    Switch $iCurrent_TabIndex
        Case 0 To $iItems_Count-2
            $iNext_TabIndex += 1
        Case Else
            $iNext_TabIndex = 0
    EndSwitch
    
    _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($hWnd, $iNext_TabIndex)
EndFunc
