Tabs

General

When you add the Tab control, it displays three tabs by default (Tab 1, Tab 2, Tab 3). Expanding each tab within the control exposes the following properties:

  • Tab name - The display name of the tab.
  • Page source - The Apps page to import within this tab.
  • Hidden- If true, hides the control at runtime.
  • Disabled - If true, disables the control at runtime.

The following properties apply to the entire Tab control.

  • Add new tab - Add new tab to your data by clicking the plus "+" icon.

  • Active tab index - Navigate to a specific tab using this property. The index starts at 0. For example, if you have four consecutive tabs named "Tab1", "Tab2", "Tab3", and "Tab4", then "Tab1" has the index 0, "Tab2" has the index 1, "Tab3" has the index 2, and "Tab4" has the index 3.
  • Hidden- If true, hides the control at runtime.

  • Disabled - If true, disables the control at runtime.

Events

  • Value changed - Configure what happens when the value is changed.

Style

  • Control Alignment - By default, it is set to Stretch. A different alignment can be set.

    Note: The alignment is dependent on the layout selected for the parent (Vertical vs Horizontal).
  • Style - The size of tabs and the color for an active tab.

  • Border - The border for the control. Border Thickness, Color, and Radius can be configured.

  • Font - The font attributes for the tab text, such as font family, size, or color. By default, the control inherits the font family of the immediate parent container which is indicated by the keyword "Inherited".

  • Margin - The margin of the control. By default, a margin of 4px is set. Top/Bottom and Left/Right margin properties are combined. These properties can be detached using the Link button at the right side of the Margin section.

  • Size - The width and height of the control. By default, the size is set to auto. To set minimum or maximum values, click the three dot icon (...). If the size of the control is smaller than the options, a scroll bar is displayed.
