I have a Dialog where there are 2 tabs, click to display the dialog and alternate between the tabs, after closing if return to TabView it returns with the last tab visited and I need it to return the first tab. I already tried with activeIndex, it works the first time, but if you close and return it again displays with the last tab visited.
Suggestions?
You can try as follows: create a method to open dialog and set the value of activeIndex directly to the bean.
public void abrirDialog() {
UIViewRoot viewRoot = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot();
UIComponent componente = viewRoot.findComponent("idTabView");
TabView tabView = (TabView) componente;
tabView.setActiveIndex(0); //Vai abrir a primeira aba
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().update(componente.getClientId());
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().execute("PF('widgetVarDialog').show();");
}
I was able to solve this method further:
public UIComponent findComponent(final String id) {
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
UIViewRoot root = context.getViewRoot();
final UIComponent[] found = new UIComponent[1];
root.visitTree(new FullVisitContext(context), new VisitCallback() {
@Override
public VisitResult visit(VisitContext context, UIComponent component) {
if (component.getId().equals(id)) {
found[0] = component;
return VisitResult.COMPLETE;
}
return VisitResult.ACCEPT;
}
});
return found[0];
}
