Hi,
I wanted to know how i can make the title that is
displayed in a tabpage bold when it is selected.
I have 4 tabpages and i want the user to know more
clearly which one is selected.
I tried to do this but for some reason all the text on
that particular page turns bold.
Can any one give me some pointers?
Thx in advance.
btw im using VB.NET

You'll have to set the TabControls DrawMode property to OwnerDrawFixed and
draw the text in the TabControls DrawItem procedure.
VB.Net example:
\\\
Private Sub TabControl1_Dra wItem(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows. Forms.DrawItemE ventArgs) _
Handles TabControl1.Dra wItem
Dim r As RectangleF = RectangleF.op_I mplicit(e.Bound s)
Dim ItemBrush As New SolidBrush(TabC ontrol1.BackCol or)
Dim sf As New StringFormat
sf.Alignment = StringAlignment .Center
sf.LineAlignmen t = StringAlignment .Center
If CBool(e.State And DrawItemState.S elected) Then
e.Graphics.Fill Rectangle(ItemB rush, e.Bounds)
e.Graphics.Draw String(TabContr ol1.TabPages(e. Index).Text, _
New Font(e.Font, FontStyle.Bold) , _
Brushes.Black, _
r, sf)
Else
e.Graphics.Draw String(TabContr ol1.TabPages(e. Index).Text, _
e.Font, _
Brushes.Black, _
r, sf)
End If
End Sub
///
Note that if the Tabpage Font does not support Fonstyle.Bold then the
function will fail. In this case use:
\\\
New Font(Font.FontF amily.GenericSa nsSerif, _
e.Font.SizeInPo ints, _
FontStyle.Bold, _
GraphicsUnit.Po int)
///
in place of:
New Font(e.Font, Fonstyle.Bold)
If you have XP Visual Styles then a lot more work is required as you'll have
to PInvoke various uxtheme.dll Functions in order to draw the TabPage Header
Items.

Hi Mick
where do i write this code? Does it go in the onclick
event for each tabpage?
does the actual tabpage title not have a bold function
that will work specifically for just that text and not
everything else on that page?

Just copy and paste the code as its own procedure.
This code is written in the DrawItem event. The first line of the code gives
you a clue:
Private Sub TabControl1_Dra wItem(....) Handles TabControl1.Dra wItem
if it was meant to be in the click event the first line would have read:
Private Sub TabControl1_Cli ck(....) Handles TabControl1.Cli ck
Maybe you were confused by the Line Continuation characters I used in order
that Outlook would not autowrap the text to 76 characters and spoil the
code.
Of course this code is dependant upon your TabControl being called
TabControl1.
There is no property available to change the appearance of the Text of an
individual Tab.
The code draws all the TabPage HeaderItems of TabControl1, making only the
selected TabPages Text Bold.

Hi Mick
i pasted the code that you provided me into my form. I
have a control named TabControl1 with 4 tabpages.
The problem i am having is that the application runs with
no build error but the text that appears in the tab does
not turn bold when i click on it.
Is there anything else i need to edit in your code before
i can use it?

thx for the code. it worked a treat. I just forgot to set

Change the color of the ItemBrush. At the moment it is declared as:
Dim ItemBrush As New SolidBrush(TabC ontrol1.BackCol or)
Change that to:
Dim ItemBrush As New SolidBrush(Colo r.WhateverYouLi ke)
If you also want a custom color for the Non Selected items then add the
following two lines between Else and e.Graphics.Draw String(... :
ItemBrush.Color = Color.SomeOther Color
e.Graphics.Fill Rectangle(ItemB rush, e.Bounds)
Obviously Color.WhateverY ouLike and Color.SomeOther Color wont work, but
hopefully you understand that.

Hi,
I want similar functionality, but in some other button. My application
has
4 tab pages. In the final page we have review button where we do
validations
for all input. If some errors are found in particular tab page, we
want that
tab text to turn red. Errors we are finding from database or
whereever. we know
that which page has errors. But how to turn that particular tab to red
when button is clicked.
I would appreciate your response.
Thanks

>> TabPage.Visible = False
but no luck. Maybe the current Tab control doesn't support hiding/unhiding

Hi,
I have created a UserControl which is subsequently hosted on a standard
form.
My control has a TabControl on it but it has no TabPages configured.
At runtime I create X pages and put a single RichTextBox on each page.
In my controls loaded event I call my Render() method which configures
everything appropriately. When setting up the TabControl the first thing
it says is (not real var names):

Hi,
I have a TabControl and, at runtime, I need to add some tabpages. The
problem is that each tabpage is similar to the others and contains several
controls.
If I do TabControl.TabPages.Add(MyTabPage), a new BLANK tabpage is added.
How can I add in few statements a new tabpage as well as its controls
(textboxes, labels, etc.)? The first tabpage (that I create at design time)
is the "template" to be used for the other tabpages. Is...

Is there a way to Order Tabpages..
I tried to Use a Class that implements the IComparer and a Compare method as
suggested in the MSDN article. "ArrayList.Sort()" and then use the instance
of this class to sort like..
tbControl.TabPages.Sort(lstSorter)
There seems to be no effect..... I have tried debugging, the sorting seems
to happen, but Tabpages don't get rearranged. I even tried Referesh(),

I have a form with seven tapages. These span only one record with a
large number of fields (textboxes).
On Tabpage1 I display a number of read-only text boxes. This displays
information about a particular Seller and is read from a
SellerDataview at form load.
On Tabpages 2-7, the information comes from another table/another
DealDataview.

Hi,
I wanted to know how i can make the title that is
displayed in a tabpage bold when it is selected.
I have 4 tabpages and i want the user to know more
clearly which one is selected.
I tried to do this but for some reason all the text on
that particular page turns bold.
Can any one give me some pointers?

Although lots of people described how to workaround the lack of ability
to hide and show tab pages on a tab control, I couldnt find a code
example so I made one. Create a class that inherits from the
tabcontrol and then add the following
Private htVisibleVal As New Hashtable
Private htVisibleKey As New Hashtable
Private htInvisibleKey As New Hashtable
'stores the current tabpages

Hi All, does anyone know how to add TabPages of ones own classes at design time ? ideally when adding a new TabControl it would
contain tab pages of my own classes, I know you can achieve this with ListView columns so it should be doable, thanks

Dear Windows Form Designers
I am developing an application that uses a TabControl with several
Tabpages.
On the different Tabpages I wish to allow users to have the access to
the
same controls for instance a textbox to enter a date and time string
for search.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
