Tab Page Box() organizes the title and contents of the page in one display box. When Tab Page Box() is inside Tab Box(), a tabbed window with multiple tabbed pages appears. See Tab Box and Tab Page Box.
In previous versions of JMP, display boxes such as V List Box() contained tab contents. Consider the following script:
win = New Window( "Tab Box",
tb = Tab Box(
"First page", // name of the tab
V List Box( // tab contents
Text Box( "first line of first page" ),
Text Box( "second line of first page" )
),
"Second page", // name of the tab
V List Box( // tab contents
Text Box( "first line of second page" ),
Text Box( "second line of second page" )
),
)
);
We recommend that Tab Box() contain a Tab Page Box() for each tab. The preceding example is rewritten as follows:
win = New Window( "Tab Box",
tb = Tab Box(
Tab Page Box( // tab contents
Title( "First page of my tab box" ), // name of the tab
Text Box( "first line of first page" ),
Text Box( "second line of first page" )
),
Tab Page Box( // tab contents
Title( "Second page" ), // name of the tab
Text Box( "first line of second page" ),
Text Box( "second line of second page" )
)
)
);
Note: Tab Page Box() requires that the title be defined in a Title() function.
When a tab page box is created or dragged outside a tab box, the tab page box is a stand-alone container. The title appears in a shaded box at the top of the page, similar to the title in Sheet Part(); the title does not appear in an interactive tab. Dashboard with One Row of Reports provides an example.
