Delphi 12. Structure window, tab control

[Fudley 1]

Is there any way to use the structure view to cause a tab on a ttabcontrol to become the active tab?

 

Thank you

Using the Structure Pane? No. The TTabControl and its tabs are one control, the tabs don't even show in the Structure Pane. The TTabControl is there for backwards compatibility; you should use TPageControl in new applications.

That is not true! A TTabControl has its uses cases just like a TPageControl has. I assume you are referring to TTabbedNotebook as the deprecated one.
