TabPosition

Applies to

Tab controls

Description

Tabs can appear on any side of the Tab control (top, bottom, left, right) or on opposite sides.

When you select two sides (for example, top and bottom), the selected tab divides the tabs so that tabs before it appear on one side and tabs after it appear on the opposite side. The selected tab itself appears on the first side of the pair.
