Here’s step-by step process for how to create a custom tab panel hide tabs in FileMaker 14: when using your own homemade tab panel, you can easily hide and un-hide tabs with the Hide function. With a combination of the slider panel and the button bar you can now create your own tab panel using just one script. Luckily, things have improved a bit in FileMaker 14. The other option was to create separate layouts for each group or permission, which results in a lot of maintenance for the developer. Even if you used conditional formatting to grey it out, if the user was on a slower computer they might get a peek at the hidden fields on the panel. This option was a bit dicey since the user could potentially see that the hidden tab still exists. Before FileMaker 14, this meant using the get(TriggerTabPanel) functions to exit out of the panel before entering. From time to time we get requests to hide a tab panel from a particular user or privilege set.
