I have a tabbed table ( 4 tabs). I want the visibility of the tabs to be based on the role of the user. So if user X opens the document only the first tab should be visible, and if user Z opens the document all tabs should be visible.
On the table property there is an option to show rows programmatically. With this option I have to create a $ field with the name of the table, and in the table as value the name of the table row. But that option only shows 1 row at the time. I am not able to show multiple table tabs.
Subject: Showing more then 1 tabbed table at the same time programmatically
This works the same way as hiding a row of a non-tabbed table. The tabbed table is in fact a multi-row table, that displays one row at a time. If you set a hide-when formula on a complete row, then that tab won’t be visible when the formula is true. That way, you can decide which tabs should be visible to which users.

Hi
That i underdstand. But what if I have a 4 tabed table ad I have a situation that I only want to hide 1 or 2 tabs? In the way described on the table propertytab ( using the $tablename field) I can only show 1 tab of the table.

This property is for the tab that you want to programmatically switch to. To hide tabs from a user, you need to use a hide-when on the entire table row. If the row is hidden, the tab will be hidden too.
