Thank you for the change in the documentation. I have changed the link to go directly to "Focuser temperature compensation", this required to change this to a subtitle with === This moving tabs is how multi-line tabs work on Windows. ASTAP Stack tabs do the same If you reduce the window width so the tabs show on three lines. On Linux Gtk2 or Mac Cocoa multi-line tabs are not supported so they are all aligned on one row but the inconvenience is you must scroll them to show all. Maybe a better solution is to align the tabs vertically on the left? I try to see how this look. |

In the past this moving this didn't happen. There are more tabs now. If the window is wider and the tabs are in one row it doesn't happen. Maybe you can force one line of tabs. Yesterday (2:00 am) I saw three lines of tabs. |
|
|
Too bad, the tabs on the left work as expected on Linux but on Windows it draw the same moving mess with vertical text :( I search for other solution. |
|
|
Yes, I think as long there is only to rows of tabs the position is consistent. |
|
|
For pagecontrol1 it is multiline=false. |
|
|
that's wrong, only for the caption |
|
|
pagecontrol.options,nboMultiLine:=false works here. |
|
|
Yes with nboMultiLine:=false this work the same as with Linux. But I have a preference for a solution that can show all the tabs at once. Maybe just hide the tabs and add some speedbutton on the left to select the pages? |
|
|
An other option is to make the window.width by default wider. A value of maybe 1200 pixels will do. |
|
|
Yes width=1200 works but doesn't look nice. An optional nboMultiLine setting at tab preferences? Or save the width of the f_option form. As soon the user makes it wider preserve that width...... |
|
|
Noted that the Lazarus IDE itself has nboMultiLine:=false Difficult decision. A speedbutton is maybe too much different from the standard interface. My personal preference would to set nboMultiLine:=false and preserve the f_option.width in the settings. So no new menu options since there are probably already too many. |

nboMultiLine:=false and enlarging the window make many control to look very strange. I implement the change with the SpeedButton to have a easy Down property, and for me this look good, similar to the interface we see in many applications. I also do the same for the device setup. I thing this make much more easy to have an overview of the available settings. See screenshot. The implementation is very simple: https://github.com/pchev/ccdciel/commit/36ddfcc2bed4f70370d195603126746e3adbe285#diff-68b1a9dafbc37a0a9c4da2f09dd57e63 I still have to test on the Mac. tabs_left.png (24,862 bytes) |

Looks excellent! In principle you have build vertical tabs. I always found the option "all configurations" in CDC very elegant and accessible making many other menus redundant. |
|
|
Thank you. Yes I like the TreeView in CdC but this is much more complicate to implement and the number of options here do not justify this interface. I like how it is now and will redo the screenshot for the documentation. |

I added two button with arrow on top and bottom for navigation in the pages. And also the capability to scroll the option list with the mouse wheel. |
