TabContainer

bool all_tabs_in_front = false

If true, all tabs are drawn in front of the panel. If false, inactive tabs are drawn behind the panel.

bool clip_tabs = true

If true, tabs overflowing this node's width will be hidden, displaying two navigation buttons instead. Otherwise, this node's minimum size is updated so that all tabs are visible.

int current_tab = -1

The current tab index. When set, this index's Control node's visible property is set to true and all others are set to false. A value of -1 means that no tab is selected.

bool deselect_enabled = false

If true, all tabs can be deselected so that no tab is selected. Click on the current_tab to deselect it. Only the tab header will be shown if no tabs are selected.

bool drag_to_rearrange_enabled = false

If true, tabs can be rearranged with mouse drag.

int tab_alignment = 0

The position at which tabs will be placed.

int tab_focus_mode = 2

The focus access mode for the internal TabBar node.

int tabs_position = 0

The position of the tab bar.

int tabs_rearrange_group = -1

TabContainers with the same rearrange group ID will allow dragging the tabs between them. Enable drag with drag_to_rearrange_enabled. Setting this to -1 will disable rearranging between TabContainers.

bool tabs_visible = true

If true, tabs are visible. If false, tabs' content and titles are hidden.

bool use_hidden_tabs_for_min_size = false

If true, child Control nodes that are hidden have their minimum size take into account in the total, instead of only the currently visible one.

Control get_current_tab_control() const

Returns the child Control node located at the active tab index.

Popup get_popup() const

Returns the Popup node instance if one has been set already with set_popup(). Warning: This is a required internal node, removing and freeing it may cause a crash. If you wish to hide it or any of its children, use their Window.visible property.

int get_previous_tab() const

Returns the previously active tab index.

TabBar get_tab_bar() const

Returns the TabBar contained in this container. Warning: This is a required internal node, removing and freeing it or editing its tabs may cause a crash. If you wish to edit the tabs, use the methods provided in TabContainer.

Returns the metadata value set to the tab at index tab_idx using set_tab_metadata(). If no metadata was previously set, returns null by default.

String get_tab_title(int tab_idx) const

bool is_tab_disabled(int tab_idx) const

Returns true if the tab at index tab_idx is disabled.

bool is_tab_hidden(int tab_idx) const

void set_popup(Node popup)

If set on a Popup node instance, a popup menu icon appears in the top-right corner of the TabContainer (setting it to null will make it go away). Clicking it will expand the Popup node.

If hidden is true, hides the tab at index tab_idx, making it disappear from the tab area.

void set_tab_icon(int tab_idx, Texture2D icon)

Sets an icon for the tab at index tab_idx.

void set_tab_icon_max_width(int tab_idx, int width)

Sets the maximum allowed width of the icon for the tab at index tab_idx. This limit is applied on top of the default size of the icon and on top of icon_max_width. The height is adjusted according to the icon's ratio.

void set_tab_metadata(int tab_idx, Variant metadata)

Sets the metadata value for the tab at index tab_idx, which can be retrieved later using get_tab_metadata().

void set_tab_title(int tab_idx, String title)

void set_tab_tooltip(int tab_idx, String tooltip)

Sets a custom tooltip text for tab at index tab_idx. Note: By default, if the tooltip is empty and the tab text is truncated (not all characters fit into the tab), the title will be displayed as a tooltip. To hide the tooltip, assign " " as the tooltip text.

active_tab_rearranged(int idx_to)

int icon_max_width = 0

The maximum allowed width of the tab's icon. This limit is applied on top of the default size of the icon, but before the value set with TabBar.set_tab_icon_max_width(). The height is adjusted according to the icon's ratio.

int icon_separation = 4

Space between tab's name and its icon.

int outline_size = 0

The size of the tab text outline. Note: If using a font with FontFile.multichannel_signed_distance_field enabled, its FontFile.msdf_pixel_range must be set to at least twice the value of outline_size for outline rendering to look correct. Otherwise, the outline may appear to be cut off earlier than intended.

int side_margin = 8

The space at the left or right edges of the tab bar, accordingly with the current tab_alignment. The margin is ignored with TabBar.ALIGNMENT_RIGHT if the tabs are clipped (see clip_tabs) or a popup has been set (see set_popup()). The margin is always ignored with TabBar.ALIGNMENT_CENTER.

int tab_separation = 0

The space between tabs in the tab bar.

Font font

The font used to draw tab names.

int font_size

Font size of the tab names.

Texture2D decrement

Icon for the left arrow button that appears when there are too many tabs to fit in the container width. When the button is disabled (i.e. the first tab is visible), it appears semi-transparent.

Texture2D decrement_highlight

Icon for the left arrow button that appears when there are too many tabs to fit in the container width. Used when the button is being hovered with the cursor.

Texture2D drop_mark

Icon shown to indicate where a dragged tab is gonna be dropped (see drag_to_rearrange_enabled).

Texture2D increment

Icon for the right arrow button that appears when there are too many tabs to fit in the container width. When the button is disabled (i.e. the last tab is visible) it appears semi-transparent.

Texture2D increment_highlight

Icon for the right arrow button that appears when there are too many tabs to fit in the container width. Used when the button is being hovered with the cursor.

Texture2D menu

The icon for the menu button (see set_popup()).

Texture2D menu_highlight

StyleBox panel

The style for the background fill.

StyleBox tab_disabled

The style of disabled tabs.

StyleBox tab_focus

StyleBox used when the TabBar is focused. The tab_focus StyleBox is displayed over the base StyleBox of the selected tab, so a partially transparent StyleBox should be used to ensure the base StyleBox remains visible. A StyleBox that represents an outline or an underline works well for this purpose. To disable the focus visual effect, assign a StyleBoxEmpty resource. Note that disabling the focus visual effect will harm keyboard/controller navigation usability, so this is not recommended for accessibility reasons.

StyleBox tab_hovered

The style of the currently hovered tab. Note: This style will be drawn with the same width as tab_unselected at minimum.

StyleBox tab_selected

The style of the currently selected tab.

StyleBox tab_unselected

The style of the other, unselected tabs.

StyleBox tabbar_background

The style for the background fill of the TabBar area.
