Hi Jonathan,
I was thinking it might be helpful to be able to pop up the preference
managers when the users request it, but have the managers default to
displaying some arbitrary tab based on the context of what the user
was doing... Is there a good way to do this besides either making
IdvPreferenceManager's pane member public/protected or having a method
like "setSelectedTabIndex" in IdvPreferenceManager?
I think it would be best to have a method that takes a tab name and
shows it. If it was just the tab index then we'd have to keep track
of which tab is which. So I am adding the method to IdvPreferenceManager:
/**
* Show the tab whose title matches the given tabNameToShow. This can
* be a regular expression, e.g. "Formats.*" or it does a String.equals
*
* @param tabNameToShow Tab name to show.
*/
public void showTab(String tabNameToShow)
It will be in tonights build.
Thanks again for all of the time you guys have spent helping us.
No problem.
-Jeff
