Which tabbed frame are you using ? Tk::TabFrame, Tk::DynaTabFrame, or
Tk::Notebook ?
Tk::DynaTabFrame has a raise() method; can't recall if TabFrame
does; I think Notebook does as well.
Tk::DynaTabFrame doesn't directly support disabling a tab, but
by using the $frame->cget('-tabs') method, you can
get a hashref of the tab button widgets the tabs use to
handle the "click", and enable/disable them yourself:
(NOTE: I've never tried this, but it should work...)
my $tabs = $tabframe->cget(-tabs);
$tabs->{"MyDisabledTab"}->configure(-state => 'disabled');
I don't think TabFrame supports that, and can't recall if Notebook
has a disable mechanism.
