Hello,

I've 4 beautyfull tab pages (tab1,..., tab4). In corrispondence of an action performed in tab1, I desire that tab2 be displayed... and maybe the focus should be on button btnAuto of tab2... but this last task is not necessary.
How to do it? To show tab2 I tried:

ActiveFocus(tab2);  
...
ActiveFocus(tab2.btnAuto); 
...
tab2.btnAuto.SetFocus(); 
...
tab2.btnAuto.GetFocusCtrl();

none of them work. Any idea?

Luigi

PS: if nobody will answer to my old post regarding how to get the current directory of the application, I'll use a dirty... very dirty way to get it. Smile

void TabCtrl::Set(int _top, bool focus = false);

_top - index of tab
focus - move focus to the first child

Sorry, missed that one. .exe folder related (at the moment, non-portable, just Win32):

String GetExeDirFile(const char *fp);

- file from the .exe folder

String GetExeFilePath();

- full path to .exe

Means, .exe folder is GetFileFolder(GetExeFilePath());

Current working directory:

String GetCurrentDirectory();
