Updating document tabs

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I already have been updating the DisplayName of documents but this name only shows in the Browser Bar and Title bar in Inventor.

When multiple documents are loaded, there are document tabs shown in het bottom area of the Inventor window, these show the File Name. I would like to show the DisplayName there but I don't knop how.

Is there a way to get this done?

Regards

Hi Mario,

I know this thread is old but I would like to know if you found a solution in the meantime? I'm trying to do exactly the same thing but I can only switch the document tabs on or off but not change the caption.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Christian

Hi,

There is no API to control the tab name unfortunately. You could try to use some lower level API as those tabs are probably some kind of MFC controls, but that would have to be a hack. Sorry for the bad news.

Hi Philippe,

that's too bad but it can't be helped. Perhpas a future version will have this feature. Anyway, thank you for the confirmation.
