It's easy enough to make a "Tab" object, but using tabs under GEM means moving, hiding and displaying parts of the object-tree. You would need a new RSC-edior as well to be able to easily create and edit those RSC-files. It could be partially done by the AES though - create a variant of the frame-object with a tab-strip, and let the application handle hiding/showing of pages. > I am guessing what this is, a tree like structure.

Only to those that are using Jinnee and Arcview ;-) I prefer the current look in XaAES over these. > Is this another function that could be added to XaAES ? The object already exists (the list object), but it's not exposed to applications yet. I would assume that this is one thing that would be done when the current version is stable. Jo Even
