Tab Shaping

Tabs can appear rounded, sloped, or rectangular. By default, the tab will appear rounded, but you can change the shape of the tabs to any of the three settings by setting the C1TabControl.TabItemShape property to Rectangle, Rounded, or Sloped.

Rectangle

Rounded

Sloped

To change the tab shape, use one of the following methods:

In XAML

Add TabItemShape="Sloped" to the <c1:C1TabControl> tag so that the markup resembles the following:

<c1:C1TabControl TabItemShape="Sloped"></c1:C1TabControl>

In Code

Complete the following steps:

1. Switch to Code view.
2. Add the following code beneath the InitializeComponent() method:

C1TabControl1.TabItemShape = Sloped

c1TabControl1.TabItemShape = Sloped;

3. Run the program.

At Design Time

Complete the following steps:

1. Select the C1TabControl control.
2. In the Properties window, click the TabItemShape drop-down arrow and select Sloped from the list.
