How to: Set the Height and Width of Tabs in a MultiPage and a TabStrip Control

The following example uses the TabFixedHeight and TabFixedWidth properties to set the size of the tabs used in MultiPage and TabStrip. The user clicks the SpinButton controls to adjust the height and width of the tabs within the MultiPage and TabStrip.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Script Editor of a form. To run the code you need to open the form so the Open event will activate. Make sure that the form contains:

  • A MultiPage named MultiPage1.

  • A TabStrip named TabStrip1.

  • A Label named Label1 for the width control.

  • A SpinButton named SpinButton1 for the width control that is bound to a custom number field named SpinButtonWidth.

  • A TextBox named TextBox1 for the width control.

  • A Label named Label2 for the height control.

  • A SpinButton named SpinButton2 for the height control that is bound to a custom number field named SpinButtonHeight.

  • A TextBox named TextBox2 for the height control.

Sub UpdateTabWidth() 
 Set TextBox1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("TextBox1") 
 Set SpinButton1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("SpinButton1") 
 Set TabStrip1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("TabStrip1") 
 Set MultiPage1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("MultiPage1") 
 
 TextBox1.Text = SpinButton1.Value 
 TabStrip1.TabFixedWidth = SpinButton1.Value 
 MultiPage1.TabFixedWidth = SpinButton1.Value 
End Sub 
 
Sub UpdateTabHeight() 
 Set TextBox2 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("TextBox2") 
 Set SpinButton2 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("SpinButton2") 
 Set TabStrip1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("TabStrip1") 
 Set MultiPage1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Controls("MultiPage1") 
 
 TextBox2.Text = SpinButton2.Value 
 TabStrip1.TabFixedHeight = SpinButton2.Value 
 MultiPage1.TabFixedHeight = SpinButton2.Value
