# To subscribers of the xforms list from "Reed Riddle" <drriddle@qwest.net> :
Howdy folks,
I have a problem with the tab folders. I'm building a data reduction
package (still :) ), and it uses xyplots in tab folders to display and
interact with the data. Each plot is a form added to the tab folder,
and they work just fine. Today, I realized that I needed to add
several functions to the interface for data reduction. I started to
build a separate form to do this (which would be launched by hitting a
button on the main form). Then, I thought that I could fit it all in
the main form if I used a set of tabs, which makes sense since the
functions can be grouped in sets.
So, I built all the forms and added them in, but I keep getting crashes
when switching tabs. I tried putting the forms in the first tab
folder, and they work just fine there, no crashes. They also work fine
if I remove the input objects from the forms in the tabs, but I need
those to input values for the reduction; the tabs work great when it's
just the buttons in the forms though.
I'm at a loss on what might be going wrong...I tried simplifying the
forms, so that they matched the tabfolder example files (folder.c and
folder_gui.c) Tomorrow, I'm going to start from scratch and make up a
test form, composed of two tab folders, and populate them with input
objects and see if that works. If anyone has any ideas what might be
up, please let me know! Thanks!
Reed
