Tabs

[James Cass]

As an alternative to using "if-then", I like to use a case statement 
like the following, assuming everything for each tab is in its own 
group:

on menuPick tabSelected
   switch (tabSelected)
   case "Tab 1"
     show group "Tab 1"
     hide group "Tab 2"
     hide group "Tab 3"
     break
   case "Tab 2"
     hide group "Tab 1"
     show group "Tab 2"
     hide group "Tab 3"
     break
   case "Tab 3"
     hide group "Tab 1"
     hide group "Tab 2"
     show group "Tab 3"
     break
   end switch
end menuPick

That's my two kopeks.
