VISUAL PROBLEM IN DCTABPAGE USING TYPE or COLOR

[digitsoft]

hello Roger
If I use TYPE or COLOR in DCTABPAGE the Tab Graph does not look the same, what can I do to solve this problem.

If you Note in the photo that you send attached Circle 1 the graph is very good in the tab but in the circle 2 it looks old.

Can you give me a test program that I can compile and run?

Hello Roger Deputy Example using TabPage

tabpage 1 and tabpage 4 the graphic is different from tabpage 2 and tabpage 3 since one uses COLOR and TYPE, that also happens with TABWIDTH and ANGLE, in TabPage 4 the graphic is correct but if it comes in you will notice that using TYPE XBPTABPAGE_TAB_BOTTOM change the graph to tabpage 2 and tabpage 3

Can you give me a test program that I can compile and run?

In the sample you gave me you did not use COLOR GRA_CLR_WHITE on the last 2 tabpages.

If you want visualstyle then add PREEVAL {|o|o:usevisualstyle :=.t.}

This only works for tabs on top.
This is from the Xbase++ documentation:

XbpTabPage:type
Determines the position of the tab.
Attribute: EXPORTED
Data type: Numeric (XBPTABPAGE_TAB_TOP)


Description
One of the #define constants XBPTABPAGE_TAB_TOP or XBPTABPAGE_TAB_BOTTOM can be used for :type. They determine whether to display the tab at the top or bottom of the page.

Note: If a visual style is assigned to the XbpTabPage object, the constant XBPTABPAGE_TAB_TOP should be assigned to member :type. Otherwise, the tab page object is displayed using compatible imagery. For more information about visual styles see XbpWindow:useVisualStyle and the function IsThemeActive().

hi

as i know XBPTABPAGE_TAB_BOTTOM disables visual style see PDR 6148

Arranging the tabs of an XbpTabPage object at the bottom using the
XBPTABPAGE_TAB_BOTTOM type causes the tab page to be displayed in
"Classic" mode. In other words, no visual style is used to display
the tab page on operating systems such as Windows XP or Vista.

This is by design. There is no visual style defined by Microsoft
for tabs arranged at the bottom. Consequently, visual styles are
disabled for bottom-type XbpTabPage objects

when working with Codejock we found out that Windows have Tab-Control, which is only the Tabs, and a Static as Body.

It's beautiful, Jimmy, the buttons work! And where to get DXE_BASE.dll?

Hello Auge_Ohr
I have compiled your example with Alaska 1.9 and I have this error
