Header Menu

DXTabControl provides a popup menu (Header Menu), allowing the selection of tab items. To invoke this menu, click the Arrow button displayed in the top left corner of the tab control.

TabControl_HeaderMenu_HiddenItems

The Arrow button visibility is specified by the TabControlViewBase.ShowHeaderMenu property.

The Header menu contains items corresponding to tab items and can optionally include/exclude items which correspond to visible, hidden, and disabled tab items. These options are controlled by the following properties:

Clicking a menu item automatically selects and shows the corresponding tab item within the DXTabControl.
