EQInterface Forums - 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!
