Tab Item Question

[AirlineSim]

How can I make the content of my tabitem a copy of another class in my solution?

You are going to have to explain better and provide an example...

I think you should also point out to people that this is a WPF project and perhaps it should really be in the WPF forum rather than here.

Hi, Thanks I was going to post in the WPF forum but wasn't sure if this related to a WPF funtion or rather just a general tab control issue.

What I have is a code that add's and removes tabs to a tab control.

The main content part of this tab is going to be an instance of a usercontrol.xaml in my solution explorer.

I'm pretty sure you can literally just set the Content property to an instance of your user control

EDIT: e.g:

Dim UsrCtrl As New UserControl1
TabControl1.Items.Add(New TabItem With {.Header = "test"})
DirectCast(TabControl1.Items(0), TabItem).Content = UsrCtrl

Thanks this works

        If tabItem Is Nothing Then
            tabItem = New TabItem()
            tabItem.Header = "Password"
            tabItem.Tag = "Pass"

            Dim UsrCtrl As New HeaderBar
            DirectCast(tabItem, TabItem).Content = UsrCtrl

            tabs.Items.Insert(0, tabItem)
            tabItem.Focus()
        End If

Oh, when it opens it's only as small as it needs to be, i want it to be as big as the tab control.

how can I do this?

I think that will be down to properties you have set on your usercontrol - make sure you are not explicitly setting the Width and Height properties of the user control in XAML.
