Focusing on tabs - mIRC Discussion Forums

For some reason, you can't set focus on tabs from the "on dialog" init event. To reproduce the bug open this dialog:

Code:

dialog bug {
  size -1 -1 120 65
  tab "one" 1, 5 5 110 60
  tab "two" 2
} 
 
On *:dialog:bug:init:0:{
  did -f bug 2
}

Currently, only a /timer 1 0 did -f ... gets around the problem. Please fix this bug in the next version.

It seems mIRC does remember that the 2nd tab has the focus, but just doesn't do anything else about it. I tried your example, and the 2nd tab did not only not get focus, but clicking on it had no effect either: I couldn't select the 2nd tab untill I clicked on the 1st tab. Pressing [->] only had efect after pressing [<-] first. The 1st tab also flickered a little when I first clicked it/pushed [<-].

Looks to me like the order of processing is build dialog, execute mirc stuffs, then execute mirc events pertainign to dialog. Adding a 1 scond time makes it work. Wierd

Same here and here.
