    Tab Overlapping
    In This Topic

    You can control the overlapping of tabs by setting the TabStripOverlap property and the TabStripOverlapDirection property. The TabStripOverlap property controls how many pixels of the tab overlap, and the TabStripOverlapDirection direction property allows you to select an enumeration value that sets the direction of the overlap. The TabStripOverlapDirection property has three enumeration values – Right, Left, and RightLeftFromSelected.

    Note: The TabStripOverlap property for each of the following examples has been set to a value of 10.

    Right

    The rightmost tabs are in the back while the selected tab is in the front.

    Left

    The leftmost tabs are in the back while the selected tab is in the front.

    RightLeftFromSelected

    Leftmost tabs are in the back, rightmost tabs are in the back, and the selected tab is in the front.
