This function creates a Tab Panel, which acts as a template to create Tabs upon.

Syntax

element guiCreateTabPanel ( float x, float y, float width, float height, bool relative, [element parent = nil ] )

Required Arguments

  • x: A float of the 2D x position of the GUI label on a player's screen. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • y: A float of the 2D y position of the GUI label on a player's screen. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • width: A float of the width of the GUI label. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • height: A float of the height of the GUI label. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • text: A string of the text that will be displayed by default in the edit box.
  • relative: This is whether sizes and positioning are relative. If this is true, then all x,y,width,height floats must be between 0 and 1, representing sizes relative to the parent.

Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.

  • parent: This is the parent that the gui label is attached to. The relative argument must be true to use this. Sizes and positioning will be made relative to this parent. If no parent is passed, the parent will become the screen - causing relative positioning and sizing according to screen positioning.


Returns

Returns a GUI tab panel element if successful, false otherwise.

Example

This example creates a information window and adds two tabs to a "tabPanel" tabpanel, and adds some other gui elements to it.

local myWindow = guiCreateWindow ( 0, 0, 0.5, 0.4, "Information", true )--create a window which has "Information" in the title bar.
local tabPanel = guiCreateTabPanel ( 0, 0, 2, 1, true, myWindow ) --create a tab panel which fills the whole window
local tabMap = guiCreateTab( "Map Information", tabPanel ) -- create a tab named "Map Information" on 'tabPanel'
local tabHelp = guiCreateTab( "Help", tabPanel ) -- create another tab named "Help" on 'tabPanel'

-- adds a label (text) to each tab
guiCreateLabel(0.02,0.04,0.94,0.2,"This is information about the current map",true,tabMap)
guiCreateLabel(0.02,0.04,0.94,0.92,"This is help text.",true,tabHelp)
