[B4X] [XUI] AS Tab Menu (Bottom Menu/Navigation)

[Alexander Stolte]

How do you use this as a top menu?

by placing the view at the top instead of at the bottom.

exactly the way you would do it, as if it was not a B4XPage

Hi Alexander, thanks. I put an ASTabMenu in designer for page 2 and 3 and re-declare B4XPage_Created (AddTab) and ASTabMenu1_TabClick. But when I change between pages #2 and #3, underlined icon remains the same. If I click again on page tab is underlined correctly. Tried:

    ASTabMenu1.AddTab(xui.Color_ARGB(255,39, 174, 97),"Page 1",ASTabMenu1.FontToBitmap(Chr(0xF015),False,30,xui.Color_White),"")
    ASTabMenu1.AddTab(xui.Color_ARGB(152,39, 174, 97),"Page 2",ASTabMenu1.FontToBitmap(Chr(0xF179),False,30,xui.Color_White),"")
    ASTabMenu1.AddTab(xui.Color_ARGB(255,39, 174, 97),"Page 3",ASTabMenu1.FontToBitmap(Chr(0xF11B),False,30,xui.Color_White),"")
    ASTabMenu1.SetTab(1, True, True) 'this is for page #2, on page #3 index is 2

What is it that I'm missing?

I don't know, how should I know what your project looks like. Make a new thread, create a test project and upload it, then I can tell you what you are doing wrong.

How change vertical space between icon and text ?

How change font size for each tab ?

 

[Alexander Stolte]

How change vertical space between icon and text ?

ASTabMenu_vertical.TextIcon_Padding = 1.3 '1.3 is standard value
ASTabMenu_vertical.CommitChanges 'commit changes for all tabs

How change font size for each tab ?

ASTabMenu_vertical.text_font = xui.CreateDefaultBoldFont(15) 'default value
ASTabMenu_vertical.CommitChanges 'commit changes for all tabs

 

[Lello1964]

ASTabMenu_vertical.text_font = xui.CreateDefaultBoldFont(15) 'default value
ASTabMenu_vertical.CommitChanges 'commit changes for all tabs

the change is applied to all tabs, I need to change only one, some tabs text size 8 and some text size 14.

 

[Alexander Stolte]

I need to change only one, some tabs text size 8 and some text size 14.

Unfortunately, this is not possible, because at that time I always used only global variables, which then apply to all.
I would have to rewrite something. But unfortunately I can't do it today, because I'm not feeling well at the moment.

i get this error when try to use Tab Menu

Error occurred on line: 481 (ASTabMenu)[/SIZE][/HEADING]
java.lang.RuntimeException: Object should first be initialized (View).

i just add it to layout then load layout and use

ASTabMenu1.BeginUpdate
ASTabMenu1.TabTextColor=Colors.DarkGray     ASTabMenu1.SelectedTabTextColor=Colors.Black
ASTabMenu1.AddTab(TabColor,"New",ASTabMenu1.FontToBitmap(Chr0xf055),False,30,TabiconColor),"1")

Hi Alexander

I am using b4xlib from first post which shows version 1.24 in the manifest and 1.20 in the code. ( Should it matter? )
Also:
I'm using ASTabMenu with "Horizontal" and "text only" mode selected in Designer Custom Properties
mBase width is 360dip and height is 40dip yet the menu comes as vertical
