I have what might be a bug to report regarding menu bars on tab pages.
It's easy enough to attach a menu bar onto a tab page as seen in this screen shot:

Clik here to view.
The menu bar visually gets attached and I built my menu bar. Curiously, if I double-click the tab control, there's no option that I can find on each tab page that allows me to attach an existing menu bar, like you would with a normal panel. No matter, as I can programmatically attach the menu bar to the tab page.
Now the bug:
After closing CVI and reopening, my UIR file is corrupted. On a whim, I guess that it had to do with the way I attached it from the right click menu above. Thankfully I have the text UIR option enabled in my CVI, so I was able to call up that version and delete the line that attaches the menu bar in the UIR. This uncorrupted my UIR!
So...
- Why can't you attach menu bars to tab pages natively in the UIR? You can create one as seen above, but...
- Why does creating a menu bar on a tab page kill the UIR?
