Trying to add a close button on panel tabs

[synth]

So I am trying to locate the C++ code which draws the tabs for each panel in the panel editor. I am going to try adding close buttons to the tabs just like you have for the Lua Editor method tabs.

And a ‘+’ at the right side of the rightmost tab to allow adding a new panel when clicked.

I am guessing its somewhere in Source\UIComponents\CtrlrPanel\CtrlrViewport.h but not certain of that yet.

You need to createa a custom LookAndFeel class that draws additional buttons on the tab. You can have a look how it’s done in the LuaEditor classes.

I think only lookandFeel wont do it, need another button to be attached to TabBarButton of tabbedComponent. And plus lookAndfeel to show that extra button according to where we are showing tabs.

May be for this one need to provide customized TabbedComponent which can give custom TabBarButton to MultiDocumentPanel, And for that might need to create another MultiDocumentPanel and it’s addPanel as many of items needed in addPanel are private.

let’s think if Is there another alternative ?
