Property Value

Type	Description
DefaultBoolean	One of the DefaultBoolean enumeration members that specifies whether the tab item can be hidden.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

End-users can hide tab items by clicking the close button, displayed within their headers. If the AllowHide property is set to DefaultBoolean.False, the close button is not visible.

When the AllowHide property is set to DefaultBoolean.Default, the visibility of the close button is defined by the tab control view’s TabControlViewBase.AllowHideTabItems property.
