Hi List,
I am not sure if this has been improved in 0.7, but in 0.6.5 the TabView API is
not very extensible.
For example, in order to implement a multi-row tabbar (instead of the default
single-row tabbar), the developer has to hack it in like this:
//
************************************************************************
// TAB VIEW
//
************************************************************************
var tv = this._tabview = new qx.ui.pageview.tabview.TabView;
//
************************************************************************
// CUSTOMIZE TAB VIEW FOR MULTIROW TAB BAR
//
************************************************************************
var defaultBar = tv.getBar();
var defaultPane = tv.getPane();
var customBar = new ext.ui.pageview.tabview.MultiRowBar();
customBar.setHeight("auto");
tv.remove(defaultBar, defaultPane);
tv.add(customBar, defaultPane);
tv._bar = customBar; // tv.setBar() doesn't exist
defaultBar.dispose();
and then when adding a tab button to your custom tabbar, you have to hack it in
like this:
var tv = vWindow.getTabview();
var tb = new qx.ui.pageview.tabview.Button(caption);
/*
Override qx.ui.pageview.tabview.AbstractButton.getView to account for
our using ext.ui.pageview.tabview.MultiRowTab.
*/
tb.getView = function()
{
return this.getParent().getParent().getParent();
};
tv.getBar().add(tb);
Perhaps there is a neater way of doing this, but even so it seems to me it
would be much nicer if the qx.ui.pageview.tabview.TabView constructor took a
bar and a pane as arguments so that a developer could interchange which type of
bar or pane is used more easily.
