Hi, I was looking at the MSDN documentation about tabs and came across this page. It's actually a very informative page.
In the url below, it shows an example of how a vertical tab (ie: if you have 8 or more tabs) should look. Is this screenshot actually a "pagecontrol" component (in terms of Delphi or LCL) with tab alignment on left - meaning that horizontal tabs (as we normally know them) automatically become a listbox style when tab alignment is left or right? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa511493.aspx#guidelines I always thought vertical tabs under windows are just like horizontal tabs, but turned on there side (even the text goes from top-to-bottom or bottom-to-top). I much prefer the look as show in the screenshot, but not sure if that is actually how vertical tabs automatically look in newer Windows versions, or if they simply "simulated" a page control by using a listbox and panel/frames.
