Tab |
The panel control is like an empty borderless dialog which is used to host other controls.
|
| bottom |
The tabs are aligned at the bottom. (See note below) |
| buttons |
The tabs appear as buttons like a toolbar. |
| fixedwidth |
All tabs are the same width. |
| flat |
The tab buttons appear flat. (Only with buttons) |
| flatseps |
The tab separators are drawn as flat (Only with buttons and flat). |
| hot |
The tab item under the mouse is highlighted (may not work on some systems). |
| multiline |
The tabs aline themselves on multiple rows (default is single row). |
| right |
The tabs are aligned verticaly right (used with vertical). (See note below). |
| rightjustify |
The width of each tab is increased so the tab fills the entire width of the row (Only with multi). |
| scrollopposite |
Unneeded tabs scroll to the opposite side of the control when a tab is selected. |
| vertical |
The tabs are aligned verticaly left. (See note below). |
