TabBar

Inherits Control

A control that provides a horizontal bar with tabs.

Description

A control that provides a horizontal bar with tabs. Similar to TabContainer but is only in charge of drawing tabs, not interacting with children.

Properties

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.

bool close_with_middle_mouse = true

If true, middle clicking on the mouse will fire the tab_close_pressed signal.

int current_tab = -1

The index of the current selected tab. A value of -1 means that no tab is selected and can only be set when deselect_enabled is true or if all tabs are hidden or disabled.

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.

bool drag_to_rearrange_enabled = false

If true, tabs can be rearranged with mouse drag.

int focus_mode = 2

int max_tab_width = 0

Sets the maximum width which all tabs should be limited to. Unlimited if set to 0.

bool scroll_to_selected = true

If true, the tab offset will be changed to keep the currently selected tab visible.

bool scrolling_enabled = true

if true, the mouse's scroll wheel can be used to navigate the scroll view.

bool select_with_rmb = false

If true, enables selecting a tab with the right mouse button.

int tab_alignment = 0

The position at which tabs will be placed.

int tab_close_display_policy = 0

When the close button will appear on the tabs.

int tab_count = 0

The number of tabs currently in the bar.

int tabs_rearrange_group = -1

TabBars 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 TabBars.

Methods

void clear_tabs()

Clears all tabs.

void ensure_tab_visible(int idx)

Moves the scroll view to make the tab visible.

bool get_offset_buttons_visible() const

Returns true if the offset buttons (the ones that appear when there's not enough space for all tabs) are visible.

int get_previous_tab() const

Returns the previously active tab index.

Texture2D get_tab_button_icon(int tab_idx) const

Signals

tab_changed(int tab)

Emitted when switching to another tab.

tab_clicked(int tab)

tab_close_pressed(int tab)

Emitted when a tab's close button is pressed or when middle-clicking on a tab, if close_with_middle_mouse is enabled. Note: Tabs are not removed automatically once the close button is pressed, this behavior needs to be programmed manually. For example:

				$TabBar.tab_close_pressed.connect($TabBar.remove_tab)
				
				GetNode<TabBar>("TabBar").TabClosePressed += GetNode<TabBar>("TabBar").RemoveTab;
				

tab_hovered(int tab)

Emitted when a tab is hovered by the mouse.

tab_rmb_clicked(int tab)

Emitted when a tab is right-clicked. select_with_rmb must be enabled.

tab_selected(int tab)

Font color of the other, unselected tabs.

int h_separation = 4

The horizontal separation between the elements inside tabs.

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 set_tab_icon_max_width(). The height is adjusted according to the icon's ratio.

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 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.

StyleBox button_highlight

Background of the tab and close buttons when they're being hovered with the cursor.

StyleBox button_pressed

Background of the tab and close buttons when it's being pressed.

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. Does not apply to the selected 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.
