public class CTabFolder
extends Composite

Instances of this class implement the notebook user interface metaphor. It allows the user to select a notebook page from set of pages.

The item children that may be added to instances of this class must be of type CTabItem. Control children are created and then set into a tab item using CTabItem#setControl.

Note that although this class is a subclass of Composite, it does not make sense to set a layout on it.

IMPORTANT: This class is not intended to be subclassed.

Styles:
CLOSE, TOP, BOTTOM, FLAT, BORDER, SINGLE, MULTI
Events:
Selection
"CTabFolder2"

Note: Only one of the styles TOP and BOTTOM may be specified.


Implementation Status:

Attributes, found in SWT, that are not supported

Since:
1.0

setMRUVisible

public void setMRUVisible(boolean show)
When there is not enough horizontal space to show all the tabs, by default, tabs are shown sequentially from left to right in order of their index.

For example, consider a CTabFolder that contains "Tab 1", "Tab 2", "Tab 3" and "Tab 4" (in order by index). The user selects "Tab 1" and then "Tab 3". If the CTabFolder is now compressed so that only two tabs are visible, by default, "Tab 2" and "Tab 3" will be shown ("Tab 3" since it is currently selected and "Tab 2" because it is the previous item in index order). If MRU visibility is enabled, the two visible tabs will be "Tab 1" and "Tab 3" (in that order from left to right).

setSelectionBackground

public void setSelectionBackground(Color[] colors,
                                   int[] percents,
                                   boolean vertical)
Specify a gradient of colours to be draw in the background of the selected tab. For example to draw a vertical gradient that varies from dark blue to blue and then to white, use the following call to setBackground:
  cfolder.setBackground(new Color[]{display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_DARK_BLUE),
                               display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_BLUE),
                               display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WHITE),
                               display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WHITE)},
                      new int[] {25, 50, 100}, true);
 

Parameters:
colors - an array of Color that specifies the colors to appear in the gradient in order of appearance top to bottom. The value null clears the background gradient.
percents - an array of integers between 0 and 100 specifying the percent of the width of the widget at which the color should change. The size of the percents array must be one less than the size of the colors array.
vertical - indicate the direction of the gradient. True is vertical and false is horizontal.

setTopRight

public void setTopRight(Control control)
Set the control that appears in the top right corner of the tab folder. Typically this is a close button or a composite with a Menu and close button. The topRight control is optional. Setting the top right control to null will remove it from the tab folder.

reskin

public void reskin(int flags)
Description copied from class: Widget
Marks the widget to be skinned.

The skin event is sent to the receiver's display when appropriate (usually before the next event is handled). Widgets are automatically marked for skinning upon creation as well as when its skin id or class changes. The skin id and/or class can be changed by calling Display.setData(String, Object) with the keys SWT.SKIN_ID and/or SWT.SKIN_CLASS. Once the skin event is sent to a widget, it will not be sent again unless reskin(int) is called on the widget or on an ancestor while specifying the SWT.ALL flag.

The parameter flags may be either:

SWT.ALL
all children in the receiver's widget tree should be skinned
SWT.NONE
only the receiver should be skinned

Overrides:
reskin in class Widget
Parameters:
flags - the flags specifying how to reskin
