Meanwhile I have found a good workaround that I wanted to share...
I'm using a navigationPane component bound to a custom class for controlling
the active tab. The only problem that I still face is to make the first tab
active when the navigationPane is displayed the first time? Maybe someone
reading this might have an idea?
<tr:navigationPane hint="tabs"
binding="#{customerNavigationPaneController.navigationPane}">
<tr:commandNavigationItem id="customer"
text="#{resources['customer.label']}" accessKey="A"
actionListener="#{customerNavigationPaneController.navigationItemAction}"
/>
<tr:commandNavigationItem id="address"
text="#{resources['customer.address.label']}"
icon="/images/16x16/apps/internet-mail.png"
actionListener="#{customerNavigationPaneController.navigationItemAction}"
/>
<tr:commandNavigationItem id="billingAddress"
text="#{resources['customer.billingAddress.label']}"
icon="/images/16x16/apps/internet-mail.png"
actionListener="#{customerNavigationPaneController.navigationItemAction}"
/>
</tr:navigationPane>
<tr:panelBox>
<tr:panelFormLayout labelWidth="100"
rendered="#{customerNavigationPaneController.selectedItem=='customer'}">
...
</tr:panelFormLayout>
<tr:panelFormLayout labelWidth="100"
rendered="#{customerNavigationPaneController.selectedItem=='address'}">
...
</tr:panelFormLayout>
<tr:panelFormLayout labelWidth="100"
rendered="#{customerNavigationPaneController.selectedItem=='billingAddress'}">
...
</tr:panelFormLayout>
