Changing Container tab custom colour on selection

[Anonymous]

I need to be able to highlight a selected tab of a container by a colour change on the selection of a particular container.  I have done this with sheets where i have created a variable vTab for the sheet with the following calculated colour for the sheet:

if(vTab) = 30, RGB(255,0,0), white())

where 30 is the sheet ID number.

How can this be done for container tabs?

Regards.

Hi Christopher,

Go to presentation tab and select Tab color property. There you can write your expression.

Many thanks, how do you make reference to the tab ID in the expression?

Hi Chirstopher,

You can change color for active and inactive tabs i.e you can set one color for active object snd an another color for inactive tab. You need to use macro to get active tab index in a container. Check the below thread and might be useful for your requirement. But tricky
