Good afternoon
Having fun putting together my FPGA IDE I don’t like the look of the DesktopTabPanel where I open up the source files and add a custom DesktopTextArea to it:
Anyone has a better looking idea? (o;
What I would prefer in the Tabs is not only the files name, but also a close icon…
so Canvas maybe?
IIRC someone asked a similar thing two years ago here without any replies.
You should take a look at @GarryPettet’s XUITabBar.
That is amazing 
Even has a great looking Code Editor (o;
Love Xojo more and more 
you also have this old one, made for realbasic.
For a better code editor in pure Xojo check out SyntaxArea (it’s better than the one I wrote for XUI):
Hmm…the documentation says here:
https://gkjpettet.github.io/XUI/
XUI is sold as unencrypted Xojo source code
But xui.software server doesn’t exist when clicking “Purchase a license”
I used to sell it but it’s now on GitHub as open source.
I have a class for tab panels “Trixis tabpanels” at Xojo + Alfred with different styles:
Simple and stylish, like it
Hmm…the XUI CodeEditor example doesn’t handle entering Tabs, though Spaces per Tab can be configured…
At least it shows the correct cursor whereas SyntaxTextArea always shows a mouse pointer…
