Create and Delete Tabbed Groups

2. Right-click any of the selected layout items and select Group from the context menu:

   

   Note that only adjacent selected layout items can be combined into a group, and only if the region occupied by them forms a rectangle. Otherwise, the Group command is not available when right-clicking the selection.

3. Right-click the group's caption and select Create Tabbed Group.

   

   This creates a tab control with one tab displaying the contents of the original group.

   

You can subsequently rename the created tab and customize the contents of tab pages using drag-and-drop and context menus, if required.

To transform a group into a tab control, right-click the group's caption and select Create Tabbed Group.

To add a group as a tab page to an existing tab control, drag the group's caption onto the tab control's header area.

Do the following:

1. Right-click a tab header and select Rename:

   

2. Type a new name and press ENTER.

To customize the layout of controls and the order of tab pages within a tab control , use drag-and-drop.

To disassemble a tab control into regular groups, right-click the tab control's header area and select Ungroup Tabbed Group.

As a result, the tab control will be destroyed and all its tab pages will be displayed as regular groups, one below another.
