Highlights of DockingTab for WinForms include:

• Docking and Floating Tabs
  DockingTab for WinForms provides docking and floating behavior, where the whole control or individual pages (tabs) can be torn off and automatically docked to one of the other sides of the form, to another C1DockingTab control, or floated in a separate tool window.
• Visual Studio-like Docking
  C1DockingTab supports the common docking diamond interface made popular from Visual Studio 2005. Just set the DockingStyle property of the C1CommandDock control to achieve this behavior and use whole form docking layout support.
• Auto-hiding
  C1DockingTab supports auto-hiding mode when placed inside a C1CommandDock control. This means tabs can be minimized to any edge of the container and slide in/out when the user clicks on them. To implement this behavior just set the AutoHiding property to True. To allow users to turn this on themselves set the CanAutoHide property.
• Design-time Editors for Quick Styling
  With the easy-to-use editors you can quickly edit the tab appearance such as the tab style, size, and layout.
• Tab Behaviors
  You have control over the behavioral properties for docking, floating, closing and reordering tab pages. Give end-users the ability to close and move tabs with the CanCloseTabs and CanMoveTabs properties.
• Tab List
  Show all available tabs in a drop-down list so users can quickly navigate. Just set the ShowTabList property to True.
• More Alignment Options Select from various tab alignment options:
  • Align tabs along the Top, Bottom, Left, or Right of the control
  • Position tabs Near, Far, or Center relative to the alignment
  • Stretch and squeeze tabs to fit the available space, or turn on multiline or scrolling to handle many more tabs
• Hide Tabs
  Simply hide the tabs of C1DockingTab to create multi-page forms such as Wizards. The benefit of using C1DockingTab is that you get full, drag-and-drop design-time support for each tab page, so you can easily have multiple forms contained in one.
• More Tab Styles
  Add more style to your tabbed interface with C1DockingTab. Choose from 12 visual styles including all Office 2010, 2007 and 2003 designs. You can also set the TabStyle property to get sloping or rounded tabs.
