Tabbed GUI?

Hi, this is the first time I actually ask for help. I was reading the forums for quite some time, and could always get an answer by searching. This time it seems I'm out of luck, so here's my question:

How would I create a tabbed view of elements? Easy example, a vsti has two effects, delay and reverb. Both have different knobs and buttons w/e and there's not enough space to always show both. Instead a limited space would show all ui elements of the delay, when a delay tab is clicked, and all ui elements of the reverb on the same space, when a reverb tab is clicked (of course replacing each other).

If someone could help me with an example file of just the basics (2 buttons; 2 knobs, knob 1 appears on button 1 click, knob 2 appears on the same spot if button 2 clicked, but replacing knob 1), that would be awesome. And if additionally the example would also show me how I'm aware of what ui is currently active (to be able to access the procuced data), I'd fall on my knees, crying tears of joy and repeating the helper's avatar name 12 times!

Thank you for reading :)

Thank you so much! That example is exactly what I was looking for. And it is so much easier to realize than I thought. (As promised I go down to my knees, (need a bit help from an onion for the tears, but it's the thought that counts) and will repeat 12 times the wonderful name of ... Drnkhobo? Oh my, what will the neighbours think... :mrgreen:

Scrounge around the ol' synthmaker forum. I didn't know it existed until about a month ago and have had great success. Here's some:

Note that FS will open (most?) synthmaker files on the forum.

I was trying to locate the SM link that has MyCo's brilliant multi-tabbed GUI [particularly the one for export].

I don't see that thread on the SM forum .... and, thus hesitate to post someone else's work without consent.

Another reason why i'd like a Wiki with all the good stuff there in one place.

Yeah, the wiki thread must be made sticky. :)
