Flat TabControl

[Nicholas Smith]

Hi,

How can I create a flat tab control? I'm using the DemoTabControl C# source file that is included with the suite and I can get the tabs to be nice and curvy. The only problem is that the tab control itself always has an ugly 3D border round it. I've tried the suggestions as noted in the FAQ but that didn't work. Incidently, the C# source code for the in depth custom tab control has never worked on my machine. When you open Form3 in the designed you don't see a tab control (even if you build the project).

Thanks

Nick

Nick,

The DemoTabControl class in our sample has 3 overrides (GetTopLeftBorderColor, GetRightBottomBorderColor, GetRightBottomBorderShadeColor) that help you remove the 3D look and provide you a 2D look with a custom border color.

With respect to the sample not working on your machine, do you mean just the designer or also during runtime?

Please open a support incident so that you will get immediate notification when we update incidents.
