| re: Tabcontrol tabpagebutton orientation
Sorry I have not gotten back to this thread in a while.
If you look at the tabcontrol properties in the Properties window, you will find a property call "Alignment". It has the options for Top/Bottom/Left/Right. By setting it to
Bottom you will find the tabs show up at the bottom of the control. Hopefully this was what you are asking...
As far as the previous thread/question...I was not able to find you an easy solution. A custom control is going to be the way to get this done...
Hope this helps.
