Accessing objects inside a tab control
Hi everyone,
Full disclosure first of all I am brand new to using Noesis so my XAML's and code is rough to say the least. I am having some trouble accessing some XAML objects that are buried deep in the hierarchy. I dont have much challenge accessing stuff outside of my tab control like this:
and that works great. However once I try to access something in the hierarchy which is in my tab controller its NULL REFERENCE EXCEPTIONS pouring out the walls. My XAML looks like this:
So, To access that stuff in the tab control what should my code look like?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Accessing objects inside a tab control
Hi and welcome to NoesisGUI community!
I've tried to look for all the elements inside the TabControl and I can find them without problem:
No null is dumped to the console.
What function are you using to look for the elements inside the TabControl?

Code: Select all
public class FindNameBehavior: MonoBehaviour
{
void Start()
{
var gui = GetComponent<NoesisGUIPanel>();
var content = gui.GetContent(); // content is the root UserControl you posted
var StoreTabs = (Noesis.TabControl)content.FindName("StoreTabs"); Dump(StoreTabs);
var StatsBlock = (Noesis.GroupBox)content.FindName("StatsBlock"); Dump(StatsBlock);
var FuelBox = (Noesis.GroupBox)content.FindName("FuelBox"); Dump(FuelBox);

void Dump(FrameworkElement element)

if (element != null)
{
Debug.Log(string.Format("{0} ({1})", element.GetType().Name, element.Name));
}
else
{
Debug.Log("null");
}
}
