InterTabSpacing Property (TabItemPanel)

The amount of spacing between the tab items in a row.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property InterTabSpacing As Double
public double InterTabSpacing {get; set;}
Example
The following shows how to set the TabLayoutStyle to one of the 'MultiRow' settings and limit the number of visible tab rows to 4. It also shows how to specify inter-tab and inter-row spacing and set the MaximumSizeToFitAdjustmrnt so the tabs are never sized too large. Note: that if the control is sized such that it requires more than the 'MaximumTabRows' to display all of the tabs then scroll buttons will be displayed to scroll to any tabs that are out of view.

    Public Sub New()

        ' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.

        ' tabs will be displayed on multiple rows and sized so fit each row
        Me.XamTabControl1.TabLayoutStyle = TabLayoutStyle.MultiRowSizeToFit

        ' the maximum visible tab rows is set to 4. If the tab control is sized
        ' so there are more than 4 rows then scroll buttons will be displayed
        Me.XamTabControl1.MaximumTabRows = 4

        ' Specify the maximum # of device independent units that can be added 
        ' to each tab item we adjusting to fit the size of the XamTabControl.
        ' Setting this limit prevents the tabs from being resized too large.
