Description

Is there a way to change colour in TabGroup? (color of the divider between tabs) The following appears on the documentation: tabDividerColor : String Color of the divider between tabs, as a color name or hex triplet.For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI. The above way doesn't work. Is there another solution? Thank you in advance.

Hello, I can verify the issue on Android with the below code.

   var win1 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
       backgroundColor: 'blue',
       title: 'Blue'
   });
   win1.add(Ti.UI.createLabel({text: 'I am a blue window.'}));
   
   var win2 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
       backgroundColor: 'red',
       title: 'Red'
   });
   win2.add(Ti.UI.createLabel({text: 'I am a red window.'}));
   
   var tab1 = Ti.UI.createTab({
       window: win1,
       title: 'Blue'
   }),
   tab2 = Ti.UI.createTab({
       window: win2,
       title: 'Red'
   }),
   tabGroup = Ti.UI.createTabGroup({
       tabs: [tab1, tab2],
       tabDividerColor: 'red'
   });
   tabGroup.open();

The tab divider color does not change, it remains the default ash color. Thank.

Can you share where in the documentation this property appears?

This can be done via theme/style XML file. This is how native Android developers would do it as well. An example on how to set up this XML file can be found in our "kitchensink-v2" sample app here... https://github.com/appcelerator/kitchensink-v2/blob/master/app/platform/android/res/values/custom_theme.xml I believe the "primaryColor" and "accentColor" XML values are what you need to set.
