Tabhost margins

[joneden]

Morning all,

Is there a way to get a tabhost to be 100%x and 100%y - rather than have what looks like a 5-10dip margin around it?

Regards,

Jon

Check this library: AHActionBar Library

Read my tutorial "How do they ...? #1"

Thanks for the suggestions. It's the tab host functionality that I like so the actionbar is out - the TabHostExtras looks about right though - thanks for that.

I take it then that there is no way that Reflector can be used to alter the existing tabhost?

You can do the same thing with the Reflection library, but why do you want to bother with it when a library does it well ?

The only reason (as it stands) that I'd need to use the lib would be to add this margin functionality so it seems a little over the top to add the lib in.

And a reflection call would be simple rather than having to rework all tabhost code...

The existing tabhosts I mean

Hi Informatix,

Doh. I'd skimmed over the tutorial earlier and had for some dumbass reason assumed that the tabhostextras was a stand alone control rather than an extender for existing tabhosts... no wonder I confused you!

Anyway, I tried it and it worked 100% - now I know that things can be extended like that in B4A I'll pay more attention!

Best Regards,

Jon
