Determines whether tabs are selected automatically or simply activated as the user navigates between tabs using the keyboard. The navigation style will based on the property and the property settings.

The default for 'StateButton' style tabs is 'Activate' while 'PropertyPage' style tabs default to 'AutoSelect'.

However, for multi-row s, if is 'SwapRow' the default is always 'Activate'.

 As the user navigates forom tab to tab using keyboard the tab that is navigated to will be activated but not selected. Selection would require the user to then press the ‘Enter’ or ‘Space’ key. As the user navigates forom tab to tab via the keyboard the tab that is navigated to will be automatically selected. Enumerator used to determine how tabs will be sorted in a data bound .

It maintains an enabled flag for each event as well as a nested 'in progress' count and it exposes events for firing each event. contructor The UltraTabControlBase object that this event manager is associated with. Returns True if the event is in progress (in progress count > 0). The id of the event

Use this method to determine whether the code of an event is currently being executed. You may want to know whether an event is occurring before disabling it.

The "in progress" count is used to account for recursive calls to events. You can use it to determine how many nested calls to an event have been made and which level of recursion is now executing.

 Returns True if the event is enabled. The id of the event. true if the event is enabled; otherwise, false. Sets a specific event to enabled or disabled. Enumerator specifying the event to enabled/disable. Boolean specifying whether the event is enabled (true) or disabled (false).

Disabling an event will not affect the internal operation of the control. Disabling simply instructs the control not to call the event handler so that code the programmer entered is not fired.

For example, disabling the Click will not stop the control from changing the Active Node when it is clicked. It will only cause the Click Event not to fire when the control is clicked.

 Returns true if all events in the group are enabled. Enumerator specifying the event group. true if the event group is enabled; otherwise, false. Sets all events in the group to enabled or disabled. Enumerator specifying the group of events to enabled/disabled. Boolean specifying whether the events are enabled (true) or disabled (false).

Disabling an event will not affect the internal operation of the control. Disabling simply instructs the control not to call the event handler so that code the programmer entered is not fired.

For example, disabling the CLick will not stop the control from changing the Active Node when it is clicked. It will only cause the Click Event not to fire when the control is clicked.

This control is a functional superset of the TabControl provided by Microsoft.

UltraTabControl and control both derive from the abstract base class since the functionality of both controls is very similar.

The main difference is that the UltraTabControl creates a separate for each tab so it can easily contain a separate set of child controls. This is similar to the functionality exposed by the TabControl provided by Microsoft.

In contrast, the is a light weight control that re-uses its as the for every tab.

Note: the UltraTabStripControl can be easily bound to a data source via its , , , , , and properties.

UltraTabControlBase.Tabs.Control.Appearance = myAppearance

 Returns the total number of s whose property is true. Enumerator for the UltraTabsCollection. Type-safe version of Current The editor for a property of type .

Provides a dropdown list of available tabs.

 Constructor Indicates whether original members of the collection can be removed. The value to remove. true if it is permissible to remove this value from the collection; otherwise, false. Destroys the specified instance of the object. The object to destroy. Used to determine the type of UIEditor that will be displayed. ITypeDescriptorContext UITypeEditorEditStyle specifying the type of UIEditor. Used to edit the value and convert the value as needed. ITypeDescriptorContext IServiceProvider Current value Edited value. Infragistics' UltraTabStripControl.

UltraTabControl and control both derive from the abstract base class since the functionality of both controls is very similar.

The main difference is that the UltraTabControl creates a separate for each tab so it can easily contain a separate set of child controls. This is similar to the functionality exposed by the TabControl provided by Microsoft.

In contrast, the is a light weight control that re-uses its as the for every tab.

Note: the UltraTabStripControl can be easily bound to a data source via its , , , , , and properties.

 Constructor Occurs after a tab's data is loaded from a data source but before the tab is displayed for the first time. An that contains the event data. Releases the unmanaged resources used by the and its child controls and optionally releases the managed resources. true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources. Factory method used to create the component role that provides the style information for the control. The created. Returns the s list index that corresponds to the tab. The tab in question. The index of the object associated with the tab in the list. This only has meaning if the property is set. Returns the object from the s list that corresponds to the tab. The tab in question. The object associated with the tab in the list. This only has meaning if the property is set. Returns the that corresponds to the data sources list index. The index of the object in the list. The associated with the object from the list. This only has meaning if the property is set. Returns the that corresponds to an object in the data sources list. The object in the list. The associated with the object from the list. This only has meaning if the property is set. Sets the and properties for the control in one atomic operation. The source of data for the tabs. Indicates a sub-list of the data source. Used to strip out all characters that are before the last period of the passed in value Display the about dialog Return the license we cached inside the constructor Occurs after a tab's data is loaded from a data source but before the tab is displayed for the first time. Indicates the source of data for the UltraTabStripControl. Indicates a sub-list of the DataSource to show in the UltraTabStripControl. Determines how tabs will be sorted in a data bound . This property is ignored if both the 's or properties are not set. Indicates the field to use to sort the tabs. Indicates the the field to use to initialize the s Key property. Indicates the the field to use to initialize the s property. Indicates the the field to use to initialize the s property. Clears the collection. Returns true if the collection has a fixed number of items. Returns true if the collection is read only. A collection of UltraTab objects maintained in the order that they are displayed.

This collection contains the same objects as the including s whose property values are false.

However, the order of the tabs in this collection may be different that the order of the tabs in the collection. The order in this collection determines the display order of the tabs.

Note: s with smaller values are closer to the control's tab page area in multi-row s.

Indexers are provided to access individual s via either their 0-based or values.

Keys are supported but not required. However, if supplied they must be unique.

The order of the tabs can be changed by dragging tabs around at runtime if the property is set to true.

The order can also be changed by calling the method, setting the 's property or by calling its method.

Note: The tabs in this collection will be automatically sorted on s that are bound to a data source and have their property values set.

 Copies the elements of the collection to an Array, starting at a particular Array index. The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the elements copied from the collection. The Array must have zero-based indexing. The zero-based index in array at which copying begins. Copies the elements of the collection to an Array, starting at a particular Array index. The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the elements copied from the collection. The Array must have zero-based indexing. The zero-based index in array at which copying begins. IEnumerable Interface Implementation. A type safe enumerator Returns the next object in the collection whose and properties are both true. The reference tab. The next tab that is selectable. If no next tab has its and properties set to true then null is returned. Returns the next object in the collection whose and properties are both true. The reference tab. If true will wrap around to the beginning of the collection if no next selectable tab was found. The next tab that is selectable. If no next tab has its and properties set to true then null is returned. Returns the previous object in the collection whose and properties are both true. The reference tab. The previous tab that is selectable. If no previous tab has its and properties set to true then null is returned. Returns the previous object in the collection whose and properties are both true. The reference tab. If true will wrap around to the end of the collection if no previous selectable tab was found. The previous tab that is selectable. If no previous tab has its and properties set to true then null is returned. Method that removes a tab from the Tabs collection.

The Remove method clears a specified from the collection. The value passed into the method must be a tab.

UltraTabControlBase4.Tabs.Remove(myTab)

 The index of value if found in the list; otherwise, -1. Sorts the tabs in the collection by the ascending values of their properties. This operation changes values of the property of the tabs as well as their displayed order. Sorts the tabs in the collection by the values of their properties. Determines whether to sort the values ascending or descending. This operation changes values of the property of the tabs as well as their displayed order. Sorts the tabs in the collection. The IComparer implementation to use when comparing elements. This operation changes values of the property of the tabs as well as their displayed order. Returns the number of items in the collection Returns the first object in the collection whose and properties are both true. If no tab has its property set to true then the first tab whose property is true will be returned. If no tab has its property set to true then null is returned. The indexer of the tabs within the collection. The indexer is an integer. String indexer of the tabs within the collection.

The string serves as the tab's unique Key within the collection.

 Gets a value indicating whether access to the collection is synchronized (thread-safe). Returns the last object in the collection whose and properties are both true. If no tab has its property set to true then the last tab whose property is true will be returned. If no tab has its property set to true then null is returned. Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the collection. Read-only property that returns the control that owns the Tabs collection.

The Control property returns the UltraTabControlBase control that contains the Tabs collection. After retrieving the control, you are free to manipulate the many properties associated with the control. The following code sample uses the Control property of the Tabs collection to change the of the control.

UltraTabControlBase.Tabs.Control.Appearance = myAppearance

 Enumerator for the VisibleTabsCollection. Implements the IEnumerator.MoveNext method true if the enumerator was successfully advanced to the next element; false if the enumerator has passed the end of the collection. Implements the IEnumerator.Reset method. Sets the position to before the first item in the collection Type-safe version of Current Returns the current object being enumerated This element is used at design time with Wizard to display a a button to navigate between tabs. Constructor The parent element The owning tab control. Determines which direction to navigate when the element receives a mouse down. Initialize the appearance structure for this element The appearance structure to initialize The properties that are needed Called when the mouse down message is received over the element. Mouse event arguments True if left clicked over adjustable area of element. If not null on return will capture the mouse and forward all mouse messages to this element. If true then bypass default processing Makes sure that the child elements for this element are in the ChildElements array and that they are positioned properly. This needs to be overridden if the element has any child elements. A flags enumeration that determines which borders will be drawn. Overrides the BorderStyle to return the BorderStyle from the UIElement If true will display the left hand earmark (previous tab). Otherwise, the right hand earmark will be displayed (next tab).
