Selective enabling of close button for TabPageAdv

Hi,

I am in a situation where I need to allow some pages to be closed and some to be disallowed. Currently, the tab control supports ShowTabCloseButton and ShowCloseButtonForActiveTabOnly to allow the user to close the tabs. But this is a common property that applies to all tabs. Would I be able to selectively do this?

Regards,
Shoban Jayaraj

Hi Shoban,

Thank you for interest in Syncfusion Products.

We regret to let you know that currently we do not provide support for this with our code library. We have notified our developers regarding this. We will update you once the feature is available.

Please let me know if any concerns.

Regards,
Hema

Perhaps this could be achieved by setting ShowCloseButtonForActiveTabOnly = true, and then selectively setting ShowTabCloseButton to true or false inside the TabControl.SelectedIndexChanging event...

That way you can only close the active tab, and the close buttons can be shown selectively depending on which tab you have open ....

Hi Emim, 
 
 
Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support, 
 
 
Query 1: I want to get CloseButton=false to prevent closing a specific tabpage in TabControlAdv. 
 
You can make use of the DrawItem and MouseDown events. The DrawItem provides access to the Graphics object which helps us to draw a Close mark on Tabs.The GetTabRect method will give the Bounds of each tab. Finally, we can check for the coresponding tab in the MouseDown event to close that Tab.Please check the kb for your reference. 
 
 
 
Query 2: I want to add a new tab with the help of the tabcontroladv button, I want to add a tab tabcontrolde if it is not selected, I want it to be added 
 
Please share more details on how you need to add tab with tabcontroladv button.if possible please provide a screenshot or video it will be helpful for us to provide a prompt solution on this. 
 
 
Query 3: how to add scroll and itemlist buttons to tabcontroladv 
 
It can  be achieved by creating the custom class and overriding the AdjustScrollButtonDimensions function in the TabControlAdv.Please check the kb for your reference. 
 
 
 
Please let us know if you need further assistance on this.We will be glad to assist you.

I have three tab pages named Home Save and Save as as seen in the following pictures. Home tab, my home tab will remain fixed and CloseButton will be inactive in this tab.
When I click the button named save in the RibbonControl, the save tab will open.If this tab is open, the save tab should be selected.A new save tab, that is, a second save tab, should not be opened.
I want it to be as shown in the picture


EC emin coskun November 18, 2020 11:37 AM UTC


When the project is opened, only the Home tab will be open.

EC emin coskun November 18, 2020 11:42 AM UTC


When I press the SAVE button, the Save tab will be added to the program and the Save tab will be a CloseButton.

EC emin coskun November 18, 2020 11:46 AM UTC


When I press the SAVE AS button, the Save As tab will be added to the program and the Save As tab will be a CloseButton.

EC emin coskun November 18, 2020 11:51 AM UTC

When I press the SAVE or SAVE AS buttons, if the Save or Save As tabs are previously open in TabControl, the new tab will not be added, the tab to be added will become selected.Thank you.
