Hallo,

I'm trying to iterate over all tabs in a JTabbedPane but somehow getTabComponentAt always resturns null.
I suppose I made a mistake but I can't find it.

here an example :



The output of this example is (see below) since all calls to getTabComponentAt return null ?


I have expexted after adding Components via addTab I could retrieve the Component via getTabComponentAt.

Any ideas ?

best regards

getTabComponentAt returns the component that is used for rendering the tab itself. For the content of the tab, use getComponentAt instead.
