If I have several tabs in the index, how would I force a particular tab to be on the next line down, e.g. force tab 5 to start on the second line:

Is this a %ps? I am getting a little rusty on these controls.

I doubt if you can do anything with %ps unless you can put it in a hidden %ob in order to restrict its width. Even then the result would probably vary with different screen resolutions.

If it were combined with %di then you may have more options because I think this would use the Microsoft control, but you would then have to work out how to send the right messages to the raw control.

Paul,
I'm not quite sure how to restrict the width of a %op - %cb as it seems to auto-size the box to fit the contents. So - I can't use the box to limit the size of the %ps assembly of a series %sh definitions.

Another question regarding a callback with a return value of 1, to update all controls. This only seems to update the controls which are on the visible %sh at the time - All controls on other sheets must be updated manually. Is this right?

Ian

I guess so but like much of ClearWin+ it is a case of experimentation.
