Tabs in LiveCode 8

Post by hairydalek » Mon Jan 25, 2016 11:14 pm

Just looking at tabs in LiveCode 8, and finding that the tutorial here http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/75 ... ab-buttons shows that either the way that tabs are handles is different in 8, or there’s a bug.

I can’t find the panel that lets me change the headings of the tabs (the one tab per line part) - I’m having to code them in the script.

You're right, it's missing in LC 8. You need to keep in mind that 8 is still under development and some things are missing. If you know how to report this on the Quality Control Center, that would be good.

I’m used to beta software, so I know that stuff may be incomplete or not quite working properly. I’ll look into posting a bug report.

You don't have to bugreport this. It is taken care of. Ali fixed it for the next release.

see the link to GitHub I posted.

Kind regards
