TabPage Sequence Problem

Hi all,

I am working on an application in which there is a form which has a
tabcontrol containing 4 tab pages.
Let the name of the tabpages be A,B,C&D.

The default view is that there are all the tabpages(A-D) in the
tabControl.
Now there is a button on TabPage A & when the button is clicked the
default view changes to a tabcontrol having three tabpages A,B & D.
Also again if i click on the same button the TabControl should show all
the 4 tabPages.

So wat i have done is that when their are 4 tabPages & the button is
clicked i have done
TabControl.TabPages.Remove(C);

If their are three tabpages & the button is clicked i have done
TabControl.TabPages.Add(C);

But the problem that i am facing is that the sequence of tabpages is
not proper. It is adding the TabPage C at end( A-B-D-C) but i require
it in between B & D.(A-B-C-D).

Kindly tell me how can i change the sequence of TabPages being
displayed at runtime ??

Warm Regards
Sumit

Sumit,

A known bug, you have to remove D as well and than add C and D again.

(You only remove the references to the tabcontrol not the tabpages of course
and add those again)

I hope this helps,

re: TabPage Sequence Problem

You don't need to remove D just swap C and D. Removing tabpages and then
re-adding, just to insert one, will cause flicker.

See the example on my site:

Tabcontrol.

Mick,

In this case the OP says that he has removed first tabpage C because of his
purpose.
I think that it will not make much difference than and maybe look even more
smooth in this case.

re: TabPage Sequence Problem

I'll agree, that in this case, it won't make much difference since there is
only one tabpage to remove before adding one and replacing it, but I would
still recommend swapping over removing and re-adding.
