Well it seems I'm in a alone in this thread but I'll post the solution I've
found so far...
The real problem was that when you extend the class Tab in order to a custom
TabNavigator you have to add a TAB_CREATED event to work around the glitch.
Once the TAB.TAB_CREATED(refer to the button in the tabbar) is triggered in
my application I have to make sure its the first tab added to the
tabNavigator and then set the tab.selected to true manually.
In my application
public function tabIsCreated(evt:FlexEvent):void {
//WorkAround of a glitch when there's no child in the
TabNavigator the button don't get selected
if (evt.target is Button && chatTabs.numChildren == 1) {
Button(evt.target).selected = true
}
}
In tab class
public static const TAB_CREATED:String = "btnTabCreated2";
public function ViewTab(){
super();
addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE,
myCreationComplete);
}
private function myCreationComplete(event:Event):void {
dispatchEvent(new FlexEvent(TAB_CREATED,true,false))
}
Well I hope this migth help someone else.
