That library may require assets that are only installed with a Panda3D distribution and with a correct Prc. That may lead to runtime error since assets are not checked on startup.

eg

on android and browser - where runtime is per application - the full distribution is not usually available.

Normally you can use SomeDirectGuiClass(component_parameter) to set a parameter of a component of some directGui element when you create the element. However this is not possible in some of the DirectGuiExtension classes (for example DirectCollapsibleFrame). This seems to be caused by initialiseoptions being called before the components are created. However just moving that function call will not always work because the functions from DirectGuiHelper are sometimes called when the components are created, which requires that initialiseoptions have been called.

One idea about how to solve this could be to use the frameSize instead of the DGH functions while creating the components. If anything has the wrong size thereafter, that could be updated at the end of the __init__ method with the correct size given by DGH.

What are your thoughts? Does this sound like a good solution or would you rather this be solved in some other way?

A new frame which will hold multiple tabs and change its content dependent on the selected tab

Tabs will by default be listed on the top of the frame, alternatively they should be placeable to any of the other sides of the frame.
