How to disable a tab control while still using controls on page

[PaulyCopeyman]

I am trying to stop the program user from changing the tab contol value until the contols on the tab page have been set or the page is quit.  A change in value of the tab contol fires an event which should be completed before the next tab is selected.  If I lock the panel or disable the tab contol the user can not operate the controls on the page.  Is there a way of doing this?  Thanks...

One simple trick

why not make the page selector 'invisible' (property node>> page selector visible-> False), whenever you select a new page?

you then and make it visible(property node>> page selector visible-> True), once your controls are set.

hope this helps

What you can do is hiding the tabs (see pic below) and force the active tab programmaticily 😉




Hope this helps

Thanks, perfect.  This also highlights to the user the controls are not available at this stage of the program.
