Change NewButton in TabControlExt

[Charalampos Kouris]

Hi there,

I have a TabControlExt something like this and try to change the NewButton:

<syncfusion:TabControlExt x:Name="Items" Margin="2,6,2,2" CloseButtonType="Hide" CloseMode="Delete" EnableLabelEdit="False" IsNewButtonEnabled="True" TabStripPlacement="Top">
    ...

     <syncfusion:TabControlExt.NewButtonTemplate>
        <ControlTemplate>                     
            <Button Content="New..." caliburn:Message.Attach="NewItem()"/>                              
        </ControlTemplate>
    </syncfusion:TabControlExt.NewButtonTemplate>   
      
    ...
</syncfusion:TabControlExt>

This doesn't work so bad but when I close the TabControl the Button still stays on the screen. Any idea why that happens?

Thanks in advance

Hi again,

I have a TabControlExt in a WPF window and I've switched on the option IsNewButtonEnabled="True. Now I want to change the appearence/style of the NewTabButton, instead of the default one I want to place a ButtonAdv there (or maybe other wpf control like stack panel etc).

Hope this is more clear.

Hi Charalampos,

Thank you for your update.

We have prepared a sample to achieve your requirement and you can download the sample from the attached file.

In this sample, we have modified the NewButtonTemplate as you have required which contains the Stackpanel and Borders. Also we have hooked the NewButtonClick event to add the TabItemExt at runtime.

Please let us know in case of any queries.

Regards,
