Default Tutorial: Nested Tabs

After searching through all the posts that said this was not possible, I decided to ignore all of them and make it possible. Today, I finally figured it out.

Code:
<TabBox item ="IW_SubTabs"> <ScreenID>SubTabs</ScreenID> <RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition> <AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch> <TopAnchorToTop>true</TopAnchorToTop> <BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop> <LeftAnchorToLeft>true</LeftAnchorToLeft> <RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft> <TabBorderTemplate>FT_DefTabBorder</TabBorderTemplate> <PageBorderTemplate>FT_DefPageBorder</PageBorderTemplate> <Pages>Page:IW_SubTabStuff</Pages> <Pages>Page:IW_MoreSubTabStuff</Pages> </TabBox> <Page item="IW_TabbedPage"> <ScreenID>StatPage</ScreenID> <RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition> <DrawTemplate>WDT_Def</DrawTemplate> <TabText>Stats</TabText> <TabTextColor> <R>0</R> <G>240</G> <B>0</B> </TabTextColor> <TabTextActiveColor> <R>255</R> <G>255</G> <B>0</B> </TabTextActiveColor> <Style_Sizable>true</Style_Sizable> <Pieces>TabBox:IW_SubTabs</Pieces> </Page>

Of special note, is the TabBox portion under Pieces. This is what was stumping me. It is not used in the normal tab box before making your final page.
Code:
<TabBox item ="IW_Subwindows"> <ScreenID>IW_Subwindows</ScreenID> <RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition> <AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch> <TopAnchorToTop>true</TopAnchorToTop> <BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop> <LeftAnchorToLeft>true</LeftAnchorToLeft> <RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft> <TabBorderTemplate>FT_DefTabBorder</TabBorderTemplate> <PageBorderTemplate>FT_DefPageBorder</PageBorderTemplate> <Pages>Page:IW_TabbedPage</Pages> <Pages>Page:IW_SomeOtherTabbedPage</Pages> </TabBox> <Screen item="NestedTabWindow"> <RelativePosition>false</RelativePosition> <Location> <X>100</X> <Y>50</Y> </Location> <Size> <CX>266</CX> <CY>446</CY> </Size> <Text>Inventory</Text> <Style_VScroll>false</Style_VScroll> <Style_HScroll>false</Style_HScroll> <Style_Transparent>false</Style_Transparent> <TooltipReference>Inventory</TooltipReference> <DrawTemplate>WDT_RoundedNoTitle</DrawTemplate> <Style_Titlebar>false</Style_Titlebar> <Style_Closebox>false</Style_Closebox> <Style_Minimizebox>false</Style_Minimizebox> <Style_Border>true</Style_Border> <Style_Sizable>false</Style_Sizable> <Pieces>IW_Subwindows</Pieces> </Screen>

Notice no tab box mention in the final window for Tabs.

So, there you have it. A nested tab window. My inventory window will be using this feature and will be uploaded as soon as I finish fine tuning it. Please feel free to ask any questions about this or anything else I may have worked on. Enjoy!

Ok, just uploaded a component using nested tabs practically.

Screenshots are amazing, in my opinion (and that of my beta testers).

Let me know what you think of this new discovery!
