From d5461c55a71cf40c3b8de4e3164402a0b632aefd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Albrecht Schlosser <albrechts.fltk@online.de> Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2025 16:11:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Document issues with Fl_Scroll as children of Fl_Tabs (#1175) Unfortunately this *appears* to be a new constraint caused by the great new features of Fl_Tabs like overflow handling etc. and fixing drawing issues in the tab area (since FLTK 1.4). However, this conflict has already been there in 1.3 but didn't cause visual artifacts in normal use. --- FL/Fl_Tabs.H | 18 ++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/FL/Fl_Tabs.H b/FL/Fl_Tabs.H index ed46d3d6b..ddfbf9559 100644 --- a/FL/Fl_Tabs.H +++ b/FL/Fl_Tabs.H @@ -35,10 +35,20 @@ struct Fl_Menu_Item; \image html tabs.png \image latex tabs.png "Fl_Tabs" width=8cm - Clicking the tab makes a child visible() by calling - show() on it, and all other children are made invisible - by calling hide() on them.
