With our upcoming release, we've extended the capabilities of the DevExpress WPF Tab Control so you can create apps that emulate the look, feel and behavior of modern web browsers. The animation below should give you a good sense as to what can be built with this update.
The new DXTabbedWindow control is designed to be used in conjunction with DXTabControl. DXTabbedWindow supports two Tab Control representation modes: Normal and Compact. Tab Control appearance can be customized by setting the DXTabItem.BorderColor and DXTabItem.BackgroundColor properties. And with about 20 lines of code you can override templates and generate a completely new appearance...
Tell us - do you see yourself using this new WPF Tab Control and if so how? We'd love to know!
