Is it possible to read the current value in the editing text box? If I can read
that then I can track the edition and read the current value and finalize it.
Is it possible yo access the text box?

I really don't know what's the best solution. At least for now.
The current behavior is the user has to confirm the change it is performing
in the IupMatrix before change tabs. It is not the same as in other
applications, but for now it is this.
But I'm not comfortable with the tab change + matrix edit behavior. We have to
do something about it. The solution could take a while but we will find it.

Hi Antonio,
I was making a property display control like there is one in excel VBA
development environment where there are 2 tabs, one is alphabetic and one is
categorized so any property change in 1 should be synced to the other. Having
this limitation causes a little confusion if the user starts editing something
in 1 tab and then switches to other hoping he is done and then later edits the
same property in the new tab. 1st he doesn't see the change he made in the 1st
tab to be there in the current tab which he may or may not notice and 2nd if he
changes the property and switches back to the original tab the original tab
edit end event will revert the property to what he was editing before causing
errors and mistakes.
Although it is a rare scenario. The microsoft property box does not
suffer from this. If we can make edit_mode be independent of the visual state
of the matrix then we can fix it if we store that state in iupmatrix as a
property and update it when the edit_mode changes.
If we cannot fix it I am just wondering what is better, whether to force end
edit_mode and take the new value when a tab change shows edit_mode="YES" or
whether to end the edit mode and put the value that was last seen in the
previous tab.
Hi Karagy,
I tried your sample program. I think if the control is visible then it
is fine to be still in the editing mode but if it gets hidden then editing
should end.For example take a look at the modification I made to your code to
put those in tabs. Here because of the dual click edit mode is ended before the
tab is changed. But in my case the text box in iupmatrix does not end the
editing when tab is changed.

Milind,
The tab change occurs before the matrix have the opportunity to end the edit
mode. Unfortunately I have no idea how to fix this since the matrix element
does not receives any event during a tab change. The matrix is not notified
that its visible state was changed because it is done by the tab native
container.
The edit mode is simply controlled by/informs the visible state of the
IupText inside IupMatrix. And since both are invisible after a tab change edit
mode returns NO, and it is also useless to force it to NO.
Well, what you can do is during the tab change, when the tab is made visible,
to check if the matrix has edit mode Yes, then force it to NO.
Best,

Amazing.. I haven't notice that effect. Indeed the edition should have end
when the user clicks on another control.
Not always.
In some of cases, user can be confused by visible behaviour.
For example, editable empty dropdown list after pressing list's drop button.
For attached example, press dropdown button, then press buttons around. Left
list demonstrate understandable behaviour.
But for list at right size - not. After pressing it's DD button you can't press
"BOTTOM" button at all. It blocked by hidden list's selection area. Other
buttons and controls can receive focus only after two clicks.
But this combination (dropdown + empty + editable) is rare.
