.NET Forum / Languages / Managed C++ / June 2004Bottom property of Tab Control seems to malfunction
Using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 to build a C++ MFC exe I am using the resource editor to create a dialog with a Tab Control. Setting the "Bottom" property (of the Tab Control) to True seems to erroneously set the "Buttons" property to true instead. This property worked fine in Visual C++ 6.0. Does anyone know of a work-around to get the tabs on the bottom Thank M.D. Metz > Using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 to build a C++ MFC exe. > > I am using the resource editor to create a dialog with a Tab Control.

Does anyone know of a work-around to get the tabs on the bottom? It looks like another bug in the IDE resource editor to me. You can of course open the *.rc file with the text editor and add the TCS_BOTTOM style manually -- the good news is that the resource editor seems to recognize it, and doesn't seem to modify it (on a quick test). The bad news of course is that under XP with themes enabled the style isn't supported at all any more... http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platfor m/commctls/tab/styles.asp  SignatureJeff Partch [VC++ MVP] >> I am using the resource editor to create a dialog with a Tab Control. >Setting the "Bottom" property (of the Tab Control) to True seems to >erroneously set the "Buttons" property to true instead. FWIW, it seems to be fixed in the Whidbey (VS2005) version. Although it won't affect this of course: >The bad news of course is >that under XP with themes enabled the style isn't supported at all any >more... Dave Thanks to you both.
