A <tab> element corresponds to a tab in which a Form-UI is displayed. Each tab displays a title in its title bar to distinguish it from other tabs.
A tab can be inserted statically under the <tabbedPane> element or generically via the <loop> element at runtime.
In order for an action to be performed when a tab is clicked, the <tabNotifications> element must be inserted (see tabNotifications).
The attributes can be calculated using a formula. The formulas are only calculated the first time the Form-UI that contains the <tabbedPane> element is called. If, for example, the value of a tab’s title attribute changes while the tab is being displayed, the title of the tab is not updated.
Note:
Too many UI components and nesting of Form-UIs which is too deep can result in the error message "No more handles".
Remedy:
- Reduce the number of UI components <group>, <line>, <tab> and their child elements.
- Reduce the nesting depth.
