Hello

I am having strange problem with deleting tab item. When I create multiple tabs and then delete one of them then tabs right of deleted tabs will display wrong control on them.

Each tab created has Edit on it. Edit's data is number which is same as tab number. So TabSheet 1 will have Edit displaying 1 in it ... TabSheet 5 has Edit displaying 5 in it.

Problem: When I close TabSheet 1 so that TabSheet 2 gets first tab then it doesn't have edit control in it. And other tabs have offset by 1. So edit in TabSheet 5 shows you 4 not 5. Why does the rest of tabs show me wrong edit control after deleting tab? Would be great if someone could help me to find out what causes it and how I could fix that.

Note: during the testing you can use Ctrl+T and Ctrl+W to save your time.

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Use Ctrl+T and CTRL+W to add/remove tabs", 625, 443, 192, 124)
$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 30, 616, 406)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKWIDTH+$GUI_DOCKHEIGHT)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
$Add = GUICtrlCreateButton("Add", 5, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)
$Remove = GUICtrlCreateButton("Remove", 85, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)
Dim $Form1_AccelTable[2][2] = [["^t", $Add],["^w", $Remove]]
GUISetAccelerators($Form1_AccelTable)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###


Dim $EDITS[1]

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $Add
            GUICtrlCreateTabItem("TabSheet " & UBound($EDITS))
            $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)-1]=GUICtrlCreateEdit(UBound($EDITS),7,55,610,370)
            ReDim $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)+1]
            GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
        Case $Remove
            GUICtrlDelete($EDITS[GUICtrlRead($Tab1)])
            _GUICtrlTab_DeleteItem($Tab1, GUICtrlRead($Tab1))
            _ArrayDelete($EDITS,GUICtrlRead($Tab1))
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Edit: Looks like edit controls are tied to tab ID and if mess those IDs up by adding/removing tabs then Edit's tab ID won't get updated so what happens is that when tab ID change (if i delete TabSheet 1 then ID of TabSheet2 is 1, not 2 anymore.) but Edit's tab ID association doesn't change.

To fix it I would have to update Edit controls parent but how?

I figured that _GUICtrlTab allows me to manually show/hide edit controls. Only question is: how to I detect of user has clicked on some tab? With old code I could do case $Tab1 but that code doesn't work with this code here.

$Form1 = GUICreate("Use Ctrl+T and CTRL+W to add/remove tabs", 625, 443, 192, 124)
$Tab1 = _GUICtrlTab_Create($Form1,5, 30, 616, 406)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKWIDTH+$GUI_DOCKHEIGHT)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
$Add = GUICtrlCreateButton("Add", 5, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)
$Remove = GUICtrlCreateButton("Remove", 85, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)
Dim $Form1_AccelTable[2][2] = [["^t", $Add],["^w", $Remove]]
GUISetAccelerators($Form1_AccelTable)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $Add
            _GUICtrlTab_InsertItem ($Tab1,_GUICtrlTab_GetItemCount($Tab1),"TabSheet " & UBound($EDITS))
            $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)-1]=GUICtrlCreateEdit(UBound($EDITS),7,55,610,370)
            ReDim $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)+1]

        Case $Remove
;~           GUICtrlDelete($EDITS[GUICtrlRead($Tab1)])
            _GUICtrlTab_DeleteItem($Tab1, GUICtrlRead($Tab1))

E1M1,

Mixing native and UDF functions is usually a recipe for tears. ;)

The native function you are using to create the tabitem returns a ControlID - so use that to delete it. This works fine for me: :)

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiTab.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Use Ctrl+T and CTRL+W to add/remove tabs", 625, 443, 192, 124)

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 30, 616, 406)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKWIDTH+$GUI_DOCKHEIGHT)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
$Add = GUICtrlCreateButton("Add", 5, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)
$Remove = GUICtrlCreateButton("Remove", 85, 5, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP)

Dim $Form1_AccelTable[2][2] = [["^t", $Add],["^w", $Remove]]
GUISetAccelerators($Form1_AccelTable)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

; Log both tabitems AND edits
Global $TABS[1]
Global $EDITS[1]

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $Add
            ; Log both the tab AND the edit ControlID
            $TABS[UBound($TABS)-1]=GUICtrlCreateTabItem("TabSheet " & UBound($EDITS))
            $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)-1]=GUICtrlCreateEdit(UBound($EDITS),7,55,610,370)
            ; ReDim BOTH arrays
            ReDim $TABS[UBound($TABS)+1]
            ReDim $EDITS[UBound($EDITS)+1]
            GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
        Case $Remove
            ; Read the tab index
            $iTab = GUICtrlRead($Tab1)
            ; Remove the tab AND the edit from the arrays
            _ArrayDelete($EDITS, $iTab)
            _ArrayDelete($EDITS,$iTab)
            ; Remove the tab
            GUICtrlDelete($TABS[$iTab])

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Modified a bit to avoid the delete operation for an empty array.
