[Openroad-users] Tab Folder Question

[Bloomfield, Martin (PSD)]

OpenROAD Experts,

I am in the process of developing an application that is displaying all
its information in a tab folder.  Due to the large amount of information
that needs to be displayed, I require a large number of tabs.
Unfortunately, OpenROAD will only display a single row of "tabs" above
the folder, with arrows either end to display the next / previous tab.
This is not ideal, as you cannot see what other tabs are available and
you have to scroll through all tabs to get to either end.  What I would
like to do is have multiple rows of "tabs", as appears in Microsoft
applications.

The only alternative I've come up with is to have multiple tab folders,
with a "menu" of buttons to move between the tab folders.  This however,
causes complex data manipulation between the various tab folders.  Has
anyone managed to implement multiple rows of "tabs" in an easy form, as
I cannot see an obvious way of doing this in OpenROAD? 

Thanks,
Martin Bloomfield.
