Render settings and Materials tabs switching - oort - 07-21-2016

More of an annoyance than a bug...

When the Material Properties dialog and Render settings dialog are opened, the tabs do not open to the tabs last opened. It would be nice if, for example, when the user goes File > Render, the dialog will open to the first tab if that was the tab that was open on the last render.

Same thing with Material properties. If the YafaRay (or other) tabs were the last to be opened, then the next time the material properties dialog is opened, the YafaRay (or other) tab should be the one that is opened.

I hope this can be changed. Tabs in the dialogs are new so I understand why it is the way it is. I only just now noticed the issue while doing lots of test renders.

Thanks,
oort

oort, I'm moving this post to Gripes & Grumbles because that is not a bug.

The usual for any application is to get the first tab focused. That is not happening and that is the bug I fixed.

Be able to decide or remember the last tab you have used would be an option to be added to the preferences, but I'm not sure that will be implemented.

Simply fixing it so that the first tab is opened is great.

Thanks,
