Polymer 1.x: paper-tab inside paper-dialog not working


Here is the plunk.

My goal is to implement a paper-tabs + iron-pages pattern inside a paper-dialog.

When I click on the second tab I expect to see the content header of the tabbed pane read "Page 2" followed by the Lorem Ipsum text. But, instead, there is no content inside the second tabbed pane.

What am I missing?

        })();

Solution

  • Preset the selected tab

    Otherwise your paper-tabs will initialize with no preselected tab.

    Polymer({
      is: 'content-el',
      properties: {
        selected: {
          type: Number,
          value: 0
        }
      },
      open: function() {
        this.$.dialog.open();
      }
    });
    

    Fix your typo in tab-b declaration

    Polymer({
      // was previously `tabb`
      is: 'tab-b'
    });
