TabbedPane in Action !

……..

How to control TabbedPane !

……..
This version is a little cleaner than the previous.
……..

But he can always make something ugly playing with CSS.
It may or may not have multiple buttons to close the tab (as was possible before) But now they are made from the component ComboButtons.
These are only displayed when the Tab is selected. This avoids the unfortunate mistakes …
The titles of the tabs are automatically shortcuts with “…” when the name is too long compared to the available space in the tab.
Tabs can be colored or not.
It is possible to configure the behavior of selections when adding or removing tabs.
The TabbedPane inherits Resizable and behaves as such – ie the number of tabs is visible depending on the size of the component. You can scroll tabs with appropriate functions or with wheel mouse.
It is possible to define content as “persistent” for optimization (Scenario: All the tabs are associated with something that is in fact the same … For example a list.) Demonstrator that I show would have made the very good example.
It has three Callback functions for each tab ( onClosedCallback / onSelectedCallback / onUnSelectedCallback ).
It has four Callback functions but reachable from TabbedPane instance ( onAddedTabCallback / onClosedTabCallback / onSelectedTabCallback / onUnSelectedTabCallback ) they are actually used in this example to put sounds on TabbedPane’s actions
You can press “Space” to switch to another tab and keys ”X, C, D” to close the one selected.”N or INSERT” to create a new tab (without control buttons! – Because since TabbedPane.fx not test.fx …). ”Keys left / right arrows to scroll through tabs visible.
