    Am I missing something ?

    Is there a way to actually debug the code in real time to see why this does not work ?

    I have "cascaded tabs" , even trying to set both in sequence - expecting the #6 tab to be selected - does not work.

               ui->tabWidget->setCurrentIndex(3);
                 ui->tabWidget->setCurrentIndex(6);

      @AnneRanch said in Cannot set current tab:

      What does this mean? A QTabWidget in another QTabWidget? If so - are you accessing the correct widget? Check also QTabWidget::count() and QTabWidget::currentIndex().

          ADDENDUM

          It looks as having "main tab" with "sub tabs" - what I called "cascade" tabs is THE PROBLEM.

          To get from "main tab" ( tab index 0) to "subtab " ( tab index 8 ) the following hack works.

          So it is a two step process:

                  ui->tabWidget_2->setCurrentIndex(3);                main tab  selection 
                  ui->tabWidget_4->setCurrentIndex(8);               sub tab      selection
