Portals in Tab Control Panels


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm trying to create a Tab Control Panel containing seven tabs in FM19. Each tab contains a portal which I want to appear in the same position. I seem to be able to create three or four portals correctly by copying and pasting and then adjusting the copied portal, but subsequent ones appear in the wrong tab. It's driving me mad. I'm sure I've solved this before but I've forgotten how I got it to work.

Has anyone got a method to solve this?

I don't understand the problem you describe. I had no trouble copying a portal into each one of 7 tabs.

I suspect there might be a better solution using only one portal with dynamic content - but we would need more details to tell for sure.

I rooted about for a while until I remembered Objects in the left side bar in Layout mode, then it all came flooding back. Got it sorted in the end.
