Adding ContentPanels to regions

[Animal]

Each one becomes a tab.

but it's ending up with the last one added as the active one.

I want the first one to be the active one.

How?

Get a ref to the 1st panel and then showPanel



var p0 = your panel
layout.getRegion('north').showPanel(p0);


There also may be another way to do this. I think the latest beta may have added a way to get a panel by index - haven't looked for this yet, to

another way to set focus is to just pass the div id, in this case 'content1'

// assuming you've done the rest of the layout stuff
layout.add('center', new YAHOO.ext.ContentPanel('content1', {title: "Can't Close Me!", closable: false}));
layout.add('center', new YAHOO.ext.ContentPanel('content2', {title: "Please Don't Close Me!", closable: true}));
layout.getRegion('center').showPanel('content1');

And a third way:

var center = layout.getRegion('center');
var p = center.add(new YAHOO.ext.ContentPanel('content1', {title: "Can't Close Me!", closable: false}));
center.showPanel(p);

Thanks - back on track now. showPanel(panelId) is what I was missing!

It won't currently retrieve by index.

Modifying this function to read



getPanel : function(id){
if(typeof id == 'object'){ // must be panel obj
return id;
}
return this.panels.get(id);
},


to LayoutRegion.js adds that capability.

Thanks for tracking that down. I appreciate it.
