i got another idea. select another index before selecting the index you want eg tabbar.selectedIndex = 1; tabbar.selectedIndex = 0;
this could be a bug (but i'm no expert!!). i did a little test with 2 butttons (one adding to a tabbar using addItem() and the other just setting the tabbar.selectedIndex). after clicking both a buttons a couple of times, i wasn't getting focus..but selectedIndex was correctly set) regards bod(bhaq1972) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Steve Cox" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey, > > Tried that, the Tab doesn't get selected still unfortunately. > > Crazy thing is, using an alert, I can output what the selectedIndex is > of the Tab, and it's outputting the right index!
