 I am not sure about that. Switching tabs usually does nothing in most
 applications.
 Also to generate the picture is quite time-consuming and I think users
 don't mind waiting after pressing button 'run' but they might be surprised
 by waiting after switching tabs.

 otherwise make it blink?

 There is a way to distinguish between active and nonactive tabs it (text
 color) but I think it's not possible to highlight individual tabs. What
 exactly you would like it for?
