Type not allowed for a page element in a tab
Help Document

Diagnosis

You tried to create a tab page with an element that is not a subscreen area. However, tab pages must have the type subscreen area, since the contents of the page are determined by a separate subscreen.

System Response

The tab page cannot be created.

Procedure

If you want to use an existing subscreen area as a tabstrip page, move it into the page area within the tabstrip control.

if you want to create a new screen element for the tab page, choose the element type "Subscreen area" and place the element within the page area of the tabstrip control.

Note: The subscreen area is only assocuated with the page belonging to the tab title that is currently selected. You can see this relationship, since the name of the subscreen area is entered in the "Reference field" field in the tab title attributes.

You can make the relationship apply to more than one tab title by selecting the required tab titles using multiple selection (press and hold Ctrl or Alt, then click the required tab titles).

Note: You can also create references between tab titles and subscreen areas explicitly by entering the name of the subscreen area in the reference field field of the tab title attributes directly.
