Android Question TabHost and panels

[rossati]

Hello

What is the size of the board around the tab (panel or layout) on tabHost?
Thanks

? I think you can make it expand to fill the available width and height or are you asking about something else, ie. the height remaining, once the tabs at the height are taken in to consideration?

I need to center some buttons and I would know the border dimension, alternatively, it should also acceptable to force the board to 0.

Don't you just need the width of the tabhost itself?

e.g.

Activity.AddView(TabHost1,0,0,screen_width,screen_height-70dip)

?

Ah you mean the tab part of the tabhost I did some 32x32 ones but it displays text now in mine.

I recommend you to use TabStripViewPager instead of TabHost. It looks and works better.

Thanks to all
It seems that the border dimension of tabs are incognizable.
Can I use TabStripViewPager on B4A version 7.01?
Also TabStripViewPager has a border, is it manageable?

Yes.

TabStripViewPager behaves like a regular view. You can add a border to it and you can also put it in a panel with border.
