Adding derived tab pages at Design Time

Marina posted over 15 years ago

Code below is a Design Time code.

It allows to add my tab pages to the tab control inherited from UltraTabControl.

Design Time behavior sufficient so far, but not perfect ( until I click on first-tab-page, click does not do same for second tab page ).

Anything else has to be done to set up tab page or tab control or tab for all this to work properly at Design and Run Time ?

UltraTab myTab = new UltraTab(); myTab.Text = "My Tab";

myTab.TabPage = new MyTabPage();

MyTabControl.Controls.Add(myTab.TabPage);

MyTabControl.Tabs.Add(myTab);

Where :

public class MyTabPage : Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabControl.UltraTabPageControl

and

public class MyTabControl: Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabControl.UltraTabControl

Thank you

There is following class which inherits from
UltraTabSharedControlsPage

public class MyTabSharedControlsPage : Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabControl.UltraTabSharedControlsPage

{
public MyTabSharedControlsPage() : base()
{

}

}

Shared Controls page of this type is added to MyTabControl (inherits from UltraTabControl) :
protected override void OnControlAdded(ControlEventArgs e)
{
this.SharedControlsPage.Dispose();
this.SharedControlsPage = null;
this.SharedControlsPage = new MyTabSharedControlsPage();
this.Controls.Add(SharedControlsPage);
base.OnControlAdded(e);
}

As result shared controls page is not visible at Design Time and it is not possible to drop controls onto it. Why ?

Thank you

There is MyTabControl inherited from UltraTabControl

When MyTabControl is used = dropped on the form and tabs are added using properties window ( Design Time) ,

code is generated in designer.cs file.

Some of generated code uses UltraTabPageControl type, UltraTab type and other Ultra types.

What would be the proper way to "turn off" generation of Ultra... types in designer.cs

And have MyTabControl work properly at Design time and at Run time ?

Thank you
