well, i have many of them on 1 application. so i was wondering if there was a script thats possible to change ALL of the panels, to the next tab over? and another button to change them back to the first tab. TY

Other than just repeating it with the name of every tab view thing, i cant help you sorry.

with a given list of all yout tab views (in my example all tab views of window 1) you can do sth like this:

on clicked theObject
	set allTabViews to tab views of window 1
	repeat with thisTabView in allTabViews
		if (name of theObject) is "next" then
			call method "selectNextTabViewItem:" of thisTabView with parameter null
		else if (name of theObject) is "first" then
			call method "selectFirstTabViewItem:" of thisTabView with parameter null
		end if
	end repeat
	
end clicked

There are two more methods of NSTabView you might want to use:

selectLastTabViewItem: and selectPreviousTabViewItem: :wink:
