Heya,

I added a Tabcontrol with a (single) Tabitem with a textbox inside, into my application. Now if I would create a new tab with:

CHead.Items.Add(item);

The new tab will be empty. How do I insert other elements into this tab or apply the content from another tab into it (at runtime)?

Thanks in advance

You need to look at the TabControl items collection for the tabitems

You can add another and set its content, e.g. if I have a tabcontrol with 1 tab page, on that tab page a button, in the click event you could;

C#

private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    TabItem newTab = new TabItem();

    newTab.Header = "Another Tab";

    newTab.Content = new TextBox();

    tabControl1.Items.Add(newTab);

}
