Select perticular tabitem if index is not known

[Amit Saraf]

Hi there

I'm trying to implement Tabbed UI in windows app

SfTabItemExt Class

    public class SfTabItemExt : SfTabItem
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
    }

Add TabItem in TabView

                SfTabItemExt newtab = new() { Name = item.CtlName, Header = item.Title, Content = ctl };
                tabView.Items.Add(newtab);
                newtab.IsVisible = true;
                newtab.Focus();
                Child.Add(item.CtlName, item.Title);

I'm not able to set focus on new tab item added 

Similarly if ContentView I'm trying to add is already in TabView then it should bring the same in front.

    public bool CheckItem(string Name, bool SetFocus = true)
    {
        if (Child.ContainsKey(Name))
        {
            if (SetFocus)
            {
                foreach (object item in tabView.Items)
                {
                    SfTabItemExt Temp = (SfTabItemExt)item;
                    if (Temp.Name == Name) { Temp.IsVisible=true; Temp.Focus(); break; }
                }
            }
            return true;
        }
        else return false;
    }

Where am I getting wrong.

Please help

Hi Amit Saraf,

Query : Select perticular tabitem if index is not known

We have reviewed your query and, based on the provided information, we have created a sample that includes the SfTabView. We would like to inform you that we are unable to select a particular tab item using focus; we can only use the SelectedIndex property to select a tab item in the SfTabView. If the selected index is not known, you can get the selected index using the IndexOf the particular tab item, as demonstrated in the code snippet below. We have attached the sample for your reference. Please review it and let us know the details.

Code Snippet :

Mainpage.xaml

 

  private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      CustomContentView item = new CustomContentView();

      item.Content = new Label() { Text = "This is Contentview", TextColor = Colors.Red };

      SfTabItemExt newtab = new SfTabItemExt() { Name = item.Title, Header = item.Ctrl, Content = item };

      tabView.Items.Add(newtab);

      // if the selected index is not known , you can get the selectedindex of the latesly added tab item using index of

      tabView.SelectedIndex = tabView.Items.IndexOf(newtab);

  }

If your requirement is different from the suggested solution, please provide the sample that you have used to help us understand your needs.

Ahamed Ali Nishad.
