I am writing a GUI application with multiple tabs. These tabs will be added dynamically at run time, from an ini file.

I can’t find a way to adjust the tab control width to fit the actual tabs.

Here is a sample:

Opt('GUIOnEventMode', 1)                    ;   use events instead of loop
AutoitSetOption('ExpandVarStrings',1)       ;   enable ' … $var$ … '

Global $gui
$gui = GUICreate('Test', 200, 160)
GUISetOnEvent(-3, 'quit')   ;   quit on close

Local $tabControl = GUICtrlCreateTab(10, 10)

Local $hello = GUICtrlCreateTabItem('Hello')
Local $goodbye = GUICtrlCreateTabItem('Goodbye')
Local $goodbye = GUICtrlCreateTabItem('Blah Blah')
Local $goodbye = GUICtrlCreateTabItem('Etc')

Func quit()
    GUIDelete($gui)
    Exit
EndFunc

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$gui)
While 1
    Sleep(1)
WEnd
GUIDelete($gui)

I end up with something ike this:

I can set the dimensions of the tab control with the GUICtrlCreateTab function, but, once I add the varying controls, the width will be wrong.

Is there a way either of getting the width of the individual tab labels or of the whole tab bar to adjust the tab control. I can then adjust the window size as well.
