Moving Custom Property Box tab

Post by LornaCraig »

Having just created a Custom Tab for the Property Box I find it has been placed second, immediately after the Main tab. I would prefer it to be the last tab, and have tried using Customize Property Box > More Tab Tasks but the option to Move Tab Down is 'greyed out'. Oddly, the option to Move Tab Up seems to be available but when this is clicked a message appears saying Custom Pages cannot be moved before standard pages (reasonable enough). Yet the custom tab was automatically placed before all the standard pages except the Main one. Is this a bug?

I think custom tabs always appear in front of the 'special' tabs such as Facts, Media and All, but after the Main tab.

Jane is correct, but there does appear to be a minor error in the More Tab Tasks regarding the Move Tab Up/Down options.

The Main tab can be customised, but cannot be moved, so both the Move Tab Up/Down options should be greyed out.
Also the first Custom tab, cannot be moved up, so the  Move Tab Up option should be greyed out.

OK, thanks.  I wasn't sure if the custom tab was being put in the wrong place or the 'Move tab Up/Down' options were not appropriately greyed out.  It seems it's the latter.
