I have the following code. To me it seems ok but it is not working. The contents of the ParentCtrl I want to put inside a tab is not visible! Can anybody help me out in this?

Hi crydev,

I've been caught by the same problem in the past and I remember how frustrating it was Smile

But the reason is actually really simple. You are adding mLibraryTab without specifying any size for it, so it is not visible Wink

You have to provide some sizing, this should work:

mLibraryTab
	<< bOk.Ok().SetLabel("OK").LeftPos(10, 50).BottomPos(10, 20)
	<< bCancel.SetLabel("Cancel").LeftPos(65, 50).BottomPos(10, 20)
	<< mDirectories.SetLabel("Library Directories").LeftPos(10, 300).TopPos(5, 110)
	<< mLibraryGeneral.SetLabel("Library General").LeftPos(10, 300).TopPos(120, 40)
	<< bBrowse.SetImage(MovieManagerIml::AddButton()).LeftPos(265, 40).TopPos(25, 40)
	<< bRemove.SetImage(MovieManagerIml::DeleteButton()).LeftPos(265, 40).TopPos(70, 40)
	<< mDirectoryList.LeftPos(20, 240).TopPos(25, 85)
	<< mForceResync.SetLabel("Synchronise when settings have changed.").LeftPos(20, 240).TopPos(135, 20)
;
	
mTabCtrl.Add(mLibraryTab.SizePos(), "Library"); // <-- SizePos() added
Add(mTabCtrl.SizePos());

Best regards,
Honza
