How to select QTab ? (in C code )

[Anonymous_Banned275]

After much searching I realized that adding QFrame makes for easy duplicating but it is hard to iterate.

Now I have this simple code iterating all QTab...

But I cannot figure out How to activate / select specific QTab.

    // iterate - show all tab text
    for(int tabIndex = 0; tabIndex < ui->tabWidget_15->count(); tabIndex++)
    { 
        qDebug( ) <<"iterate @ index  " << QString::number(tabIndex);
        qDebug() <<"tab text @ index " << QString::number(tabIndex)<<
                  ui->tabWidget_15->tabText(tabIndex) ;
       // select as  current tab / QWidget 
       //  ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex)->?????
ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex)->activateWindow(); // no go
ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex)->focusWidget();    // no go
ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex)->setFocus();       // no go
ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex)->setEnabled(true); // no go 
// TabWidget 
    }

I assume that:

• tabWidget_15 is a QTabWidget
• with "activate / select" you mean setting the currentIndex of the tabWidget, i.e. determining which tab is being shown.

If that is the case, look here.

const int tabIndexToShow = 42; // or whatever you want
ui->tabWidget_15->setCurrentIndex(tabIndexToShow);

...that should do what you want.

Thanks for the idea.
Looks convoluted , but works as expected.
ui->tabWidget_15->setCurrentWidget(ui->tabWidget_15->widget(tabIndex));
