WB 23- Change tab caption to bold by code

Hello all,

I am working on a project in WB 23 where I have a need to make changes to tab panes based on certain variables. More specifically, I am needing to make certain captions bold via code while leaving others as default. I've tried different combinations in both server code and browser code using the syntax TAB_MyTab[2]..Bold = True but am receiving an error that the Bold property is not applicable.

If this is not possible another alternative would be to programmatically change the background color of the pane but I have also been unable to find a way to do this.

Does anyone have experience with changing the pane settings on a tab control by programming that you would not mind sharing?

TIA,

-Marc

Hello Mark,

May not help but ..fontbold is more what you are looking for. From the help it does include a tab control.

Maybe
.caption..bold ??

Appreciate the responses, unfortunately I have tried both of those syntaxes, but with no luck..

Hello Marc,

I have a Tab Control with 5 Tabs. The ID set by webdev are A7_1 thru A7_5

I created a button turned the browser code to JS and made sure the button runs browser code only:

var btn = document.getElementById("A7_4")
btn.style.fontWeight = 'bold';

//Set it back
var btn = document.getElementById("A7_4")
btn.style.fontWeight = 'initial';

It worked for my test

I no nothing about java script as I am just starting to learn it. So good luck.

DW-

This did the trick, thanks much for the help! I haven't dabbled much with JS myself but it can really open up possibilities in WB..

Best Regards,
