Need to center text in the tab (TabControlExt)

[Mike Allred]

My image automatically centers, but my text is left aligned. How do I center the text? It seems that center should be the default anyway . . .

What am I missing here?

My code:

        <syncfusion:TabControlExt Name="tabMain" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" TabStripPlacement="Top"
                                  TabScrollStyle="Extended" TabScrollButtonVisibility="Visible"
                                  CloseButtonType="Hide"
                                  syncfusion:SkinStorage.VisualStyle="Transparent" >

            <syncfusion:TabItemExt Name="pgtPartMaster" Header="Part Master" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
                                   Width="150" Height="70" HeaderMargin="0,5,0,0"
                                   Image="Images/PartMaster.png" ImageAlignment="AboveText" ImageHeight="30" ImageWidth="30" IconMargin="0,10,0,0" >
                <Grid />
            </syncfusion:TabItemExt> 

        </syncfusion:TabControlExt>

Thanks for the example. Do you have an example that uses WPF and .NET Core 3.0?

When I copy your code in I get these messages:

On the line:
 xmlns:system="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib"

I'm told:
 Undefined CLR namespace. the clr-namespace URI refers to a namespace 'System'  that could not be found

On the 2nd line here:
    <Window.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type syncfusion:TabItemExt}" BasedOn="{StaticResource TransparentTabItemExtStyle}">

I'm told:
 The recource "TransparentTabItemExtStyle" could not be resolved.

There are many more like this 2nd one.

I've tried installing the Syncfusion.Themes.Office2010Blue.WPF NuGet package. I also have Syncfusion.Share.WPF and Syncfusion.Tools.WPF installed.
