TabContainer

Inherits: Container < Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object

Tabbed container.

Description

Sets the active tab’s visible property to the value true. Sets all other children’s to false.

Ignores non-Control children.

Individual tabs are always visible unless you use set_tab_disabled and set_tab_title to hide it.

To hide only a tab’s content, nest the content inside a child Control, so it receives the TabContainer’s visibility setting instead.
