Hello,
I guess there is a better way to do it but this might be a start:
if all the child of your "Tab Widget" base are of the same size, you
could use the /Map keyword of widget_control to make bring a given widget
"to the front". All you need is a row (or column) of button, one for each
page of your Tab Widget, that call widget_control, page_n, /map
This has the disadvantage of using explicit size definition to make sure
that the front widget hides the others or calling widget_control,
all_other_pages, map=0.
I hope this helps
cheers
Thomas
