Hi,

I’m trying to mimic Excel’s tab behavior and haven’t found how to rename tabs in the same fashion (double click on tab).

Is there an easy way to achieve this ?

Great, thanks!

The CExtTabPageContainerWnd control uses the CExtTabWnd tab control for switching the active page window. Unfortunately the CExtTabWnd control does not support item renaming. You should create your own CExtTWPC < CExtTabWnd > derived class which handles the WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK message, hit tests the tab item using the CExtTabWnd::ItemHitTest() method and performs the item renaming. To make the CExtTabPageContainerWnd control using your tab control with rename-able tab items you should override the CExtTabPageContainerWnd::OnTabWndGetTabImpl() virtual method and instantiate your tab window in it.
