Tabs do not have titles.
A tab control has a numeric value, which represents the currently selected tab. Selecting a value outside of the range of existing tabs has an undefined effect.
SIZE and LINES describe the area occupied by the tab control, using the tab's font to determine the dimensions of the row and column. The area described includes the row(s) occupied by the tabs as well as the box.
Tab controls are always displayed using the push button colors selected by the user in the Windows Control Panel.
This property enables you to apply CSS styles to the control when the program is run through AcuToWeb. The value of ATW-CSS-CLASS should represent a corresponding class in the current theme (that is, a .class-name entry in the cascading style sheet) deployed when you run your program through AcuToWeb. This property can be applied to more than one control in your program.
If both the ATW-CSS-CLASS and ATW-CSS-ID properties are specified for this control, and both correspond to the same style in the style sheet, the style specified by ATW-CSS-ID takes precedence.
See Cascading Style Sheet Syntax for more information about additional in-built styles in AcuToWeb.
This property enables you to apply CSS styles to the control when the program is run through AcuToWeb. The value of ATW-CSS-ID should represent a corresponding ID in the current theme (that is, a #class-name entry in the cascading style sheet) deployed when you run your program through AcuToWeb. The value of this property must be unique, and only applied to one control in your program.
If both the ATW-CSS-CLASS and ATW-CSS-ID properties are specified for this control, and both correspond to the same style in the style sheet, the style specified by ATW-CSS-ID takes precedence.

| MULTILINE | If the tabs don't all fit on one line, this style allows them to occupy as many lines as needed. If this style is not used, the system adds a scroll bar so the user can scroll to the hidden tabs. |
| BUTTONS | This style produces a tab control with a different appearance. These tabs look like push buttons (the box is not shown), but they act much like a group of radio buttons. |
| FIXED-WIDTH | This style causes each tab to occupy the same amount of space. Without this style, each tab is individually sized. Note that setting this style can cause an odd appearance on multiline tabs. |
| VERTICAL | W$FONT library routine When this style is used, tabs are displayed vertically along the left edge of the control. This style
automatically implies the
MULITLINE style.
Because some fonts are not displayed properly after being rotated, we recommend using a TrueType font with vertical tabs. You can use the W$FONT library routine to retrieve a TrueType font. |
| BOTTOM | This style causes tabs to appear on the bottom edge of the control instead of the top. If the VERTICAL style is also specified, tabs appear on the right edge of the control instead of the left. |
| FLAT-BUTTONS | This style is similar to the
BUTTONS style, but the button-style tabs appear flat, with no border, rather than having a 3-D appearance
Note: This style is valid only when the tabs are positioned at the top of the control. If the
BOTTOM style is used, and
FLAT-BUTTONS is also selected, the control will default to the
BUTTONS style.
|
| NO-DIVIDERS | This style is used only with the FLAT-BUTTONS style. When specified, no dividers are drawn between the button-style tabs. |
| HOT-TRACK | When this style is used, a tab's text is highlighted when the mouse hovers over it. Note that the degree of highlighting is determined by Windows and is often fairly subtle. |
| NO-FOCUS | Users cannot give focus to the tab control when this style is used. |
