It is not clear about which dummy page you are talking about, but I don't see this working. > I still don't understand the need and purpose of all that. I am getting tired of this endless discussion. I was expecting that you would provide patches for this, but if you just want to talk endlessly about the problem, then we are loosing time here. I don't use TTabControl, so I am not that interrested in doing all the work alone. You provided something like 5% of an implementation which works only in win32 and breaks the code of other people using TTabControl. That's not nearly enough, is it? I already provided a simple working solution for you to finish TNewTabControl: 1> Override the handle and create a TCustomControl handle 2> Put a TPageControl in the bottom of the control, redirect all methods to work on it 3> Make sure it is compatible with the current TTabControl If you want to work on that implementation, I can help, if not, this discussion is useless. There are other alternative implementations, for example implementing a new separate widgetset implementation for TTabControl, but it is much, much larger, and from what I already understood patches won't apear for that, so the only viable solution is the one described above. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
