1 min read

Appearance

In TabcontrolAdv, the Active Tab’s backcolor, the default Tab’s backColor and the Inactive Tab’s backcolor can be changed. You can do so by choosing the colors for ActiveTabColor, TabBackColor, InActiveTabColor property.

Note:

Before using Default backcolor property, you need to disable the UseActiveTabColor property for needed tab pages.

C# 

//Set the active tab backcolor
this.tabControlAdv1.ActiveTabColor = Color.Pink;
//Set the Inactive tab backcolor
this.tabControlAdv1.InactiveTabColor = Color.LightBlue;
//Set the Default tab backcolor
this.tabControlAdv1.TabPages[0].UseActiveTabColor = false;
this.tabControlAdv1.TabPages[0].TabBackColor = Color.Red;

VB

'Set the active tab backcolor
Me.tabControlAdv1.ActiveTabColor = Color.Pink
'Set the Inactive tab backcolor
Me.tabControlAdv1.InactiveTabColor = Color.LightBlue
'Set the Default tab backcolor
Me.tabControlAdv1.TabPages(0).UseActiveTabColor = false
Me.tabControlAdv1.TabPages(0).TabBackColor = Color.Red
