hello,



with your new layout.attachTabbar() functionality :



is it possible to have the tabbar position vertically? That instead of having a horizontal tabbar on the top of the layout grid, can we have a vertical tabbar on the left side of the layout grid.



This is a common ui component we see a lot in applications, would be great if we could accomplish with dhtnmlx!!





thanks,

Hello,

You should edit the dhtmlxwindows.js file:

win.attachTabbar = function() {
    …
    this.tabbar = new dhtmlXTabBar(obj.id, “top”,26); <-- change to “left” or “right”

is there any cleaner way of doing that?



for example can i create some sort of extension that will not affect your current code but ONLY add to your current provided functionality?



i donot wish to modify your current code, and get myself screwed when you release another update! It won’t be a problem if i could just say override that function of yours (win.attachTabbar = function() {
) with my own implementation in a separate file? Is that possible?



Any better suggestion is welcome!!!



 



 



Thank you,

Edit the dhtmlxwindows.js file:

win.attachTabbar = function(dir) {

       // add the following line
       if (!dir) dir = “top”;

       // modify the following line
       this.tabbar = new dhtmlXTabBar(obj.id, dir, 26);

Now you can use the following syntax in the main script:

var dhxWins = nde dhtmlXWindows();
var w1 = dhxWins.createWindow(…);
var tabbar = w1.attachTabbar(“left”); // or “right”

or

var tabbar = dhxLayout.cells(“a”).attachTabbar(“left”); // or “right”
