WPF: Changing the layout of Tabs in TabPanel

1
votes

Instead of at the top I wan't my tabs on the left side. I changed the template for the the TabControl so that the TabPanel would appear in first column and the second column would host the content.

Problem is I'm not sure how I change the TabPanel's layout so the tabs appear stacked vertically.

I know in normal ItemsControl objects its the ItemsPanel that I should change. How can I do this?

Take a look at this link: switchonthecode.com/tutorials/… – Goblin
Yeah seen that and it helped me when I first started working with tabs. However there is no mention there on the layout of the Tabs themselves. I'm not talking about the content in the header or the panel that opens up when selected but the TabItems theselves I wan't to reorder them. – Ingó Vals

I think you are talking about showing your TabItem's header to the left vertically. Take a look at the TabStripPlacement property. You can set it to left to achieve what you want.

<TabControl TabStripPlacement="Left">
    ...
    ...
</TabControl>
