iOS Question Changing Tab Bar content

[MitchBu]

From the same source, I generate 4 different apps: Check Printer+, Check Printer Free, Check Writer Pro, Check Writer Free. Is it possible to change Tab Bar icons and tag in code ?

That would allow me to change the tab bar content according to the apps. For instance by adding the shopping cart icon in the free apps.

The best solution is to create layout files with only the tab buttons. This way you can load the correct one based on the app version.

You can also create them programmatically:

Dim bb1, bb2, bb3 As BarButton
bb1.InitializeText("111", "aqwdsdasd")
bb2.InitializeSystem(bb2.ITEM_FLEXIBLE_SPACE, "")
bb3.InitializeText("as222", "asdasd")
Page1.ToolbarButtons = Array(bb1, bb2, bb3)

Hi @Erel ,

sorry to bug you, but how do I place icons on the tab bar with this method ? Your example shows only text content.

Thank you.

Dim bb As BarButton
bb.InitializeSystem(bb.ITEM_CAMERA, "tag")

Or bb.InitializeBitmap for non-system icons.

Great. Works perfectly.

Thank you Erel
