How To Navigate Tabs In A Form Using Buttons?

Hello,

It is possible to use Event Buttons to navigate between Tabs in a Tab Container using a combination of Event Buttons and Active Form Flows (AFFs). I have shared an example project that demonstrates how this can work by running the Run Test Form flow. All of the important configurations are mostly found by editing the Form and examining it, but below are the important points to keep in mind for getting this to work as intended.

- The buttons you use for tab navigation must be Event Buttons specifically. If you use the standard Button control for this it ends the Form session and the flow continues down an outcome path.

- You must edit the Tab Container control to have Default Tab From Data Name checked as true. You can then set the input name that will receive the name of the Tab you want to navigate to.

- Next you must set up an Active Form Flow to run when each Event Button is clicked. That AFF will need to hit a Set Control step when the specific Event Button is clicked and set the Tab Container default tab input to the exact name of the tab you wish to navigate to.

- Lastly, when setting the inputs to the Form step in the flow, you need to set the input name for setting the Default Tab to the exact name of the tab you want users to start on.
