[Gambas-user] Switching between forms in tabstrip

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

If I may add my 2 cents worth,

if you just use the form_keypress event
you might be able to do what you want.

this is my attempt; tbsettings is my tabstrip control
I have 4 tabs (with index 0 to 3)

add this to the form that you have the tabstrip onto

PUBLIC SUB Form_KeyPress()

  IF Key.Control THEN

    SELECT CASE tbSettings.Index
      CASE 0 TO 2
        INC tbSettings.Index
      CASE 3
        tbSettings.index = 0
      CASE ELSE
    END SELECT

  END IF

END

this would result in moving to the next tab when you just press
the control key

I haven't been able to make it to work with a combination of keys
but in Gambas 2.10 it works no matter what control has the focus

I only have one tabstrip control on my GUI so I am not sure if this
solution would work on multiple tabstrips or other layouts

Hope it helps and it's close to what you wanna do.

Regards,
Dimitrios
