Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Core

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Core

Declaration

C#

public DXTabItem GetTabItem(
    int index
)

VB.NET

Public Function GetTabItem(
    index As Integer
) As DXTabItem

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
index	Int32	A zero-based integer value that specifies the tab item’s index.

Returns

Type	Description
DXTabItem	A DXTabItem object, that is a tab item with the specified index; null (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the specified index is out of range.

Remarks

Use the GetTabItem method to obtain a tab item, when tab control’s data items are not the DXTabItem type. This happens when the tab control is bound to a data source, or when its Items collection has been manually filled with arbitrary objects. In this instance, the GetTabItem method returns a DXTabItem object, obtained from a data item with the specified index, using the template specified by the ItemTemplate property.

To obtain a tab item by a data item, use another overload of the GetTabItem method that takes the item parameter.
