Tab panel color property

Hi,

I would like to add color property to the Tab panel. Currently xojo doesnt have the property to add the color to tab panel, it just takes the operating system theme color which is not matching with my form color. I have taken the form color as white background

Thanks

I am searching an answer too. I understand that it’s possible with a canvas and a page panel, but i’m not sure. If you have the answer please tell me.

There is a Custom Tab Panel class that is out there. It is somewhat old and needs to have some updates to things but for the most part it works quite well. I’ve made some modifications to the class that allows you to set the color for the tabs. If you would like it, I can see about posting a copy some place.

it’s here : https://github.com/alexrestrepo/RBCustomTabPanel

Thanks, Jean-Yves!

That’s the one. I think I had to add some code to allow colors for the tabs, but that’s fairly simple.

There are some functions and other bits in the code that have been deprecated that you’ll need to fix up. But it is not that bad.

There is also GraffitiTabBar which supports a complete set of custom coloring options and more. https://graffitisuite.com/
