I'm having a problem using a Tab Panel.
I followed the instructions of the "Tabbed buttons" stack by Eric Chatonet to set up a test stack using the Tab Panel to switch between cards.

The first click on a tab works correctly, but after the first click, I have to click TWICE on a Tab to make the Tab Panel respond and switch cards.
This happens in the Rev IDE and as a standalone.

The only script in the stack is this one attached to the grouped buttons on the Tab Panel.

on menuPick pNewItem,pOldItem
go to card pNewItem
end menuPick

I'm using Rev 2.8.1 on XP.

thanks

It works as expected here.

Did you group the tab button?
Did you set it's background behaviour to true?
Did you place that group on every card?
Did you set the names of the cards to the same string as a line of the tab button?

These are the things that I normally do wrong when doing the tab button with card approach.

Thanks for that.
I thought I was copying the group to each card properly,
but tried again with a new stack and it worked fine.
