TabSizing Property (GroupSettings)

Returns or sets the sizing for the tabs.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property TabSizing As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabs.TabSizing
public Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabs.TabSizing TabSizing {get; set;}
Remarks

The tabs that appear in the Tab Group can be automatically sized according to the context of your application. The TabSizing property specifies how the control will adjust the size of the tabs. You can specify a fixed or variable size for tabs, have tabs adjust their size based on caption and picture or the amount of space available, and have inactive tabs display as an icon without a caption to save space.

Example
The following code creates several DockableControlPanes to contain controls on the form and then create the DockAreaPane instances to contain them.

Imports Infragistics.Shared
Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinDock

Private Sub CreateDockManagerPanes(ByVal manager As UltraDockManager)
    ' this code assumes that there is a treeview (treeview1),
    ' listview (listview1) and rich textbox (richtext1) on 
    ' the form

    ' create control panes to contain the listview
    ' and tree view
    Dim paneTree As DockableControlPane = New DockableControlPane("tree", "MS Treeview", Me.treeView1)
    Dim paneList As DockableControlPane = New DockableControlPane()

    paneList.Key = "list"
    paneList.Text = "MS Listview"
    paneList.Control = Me.listView1

    ' create a dock area to contain the control panes
    Dim dockAreaLeft As DockAreaPane = New DockAreaPane(DockedLocation.DockedLeft)

    ' add the control panes to the dock area
    dockAreaLeft.Panes.Add(paneTree)
    dockAreaLeft.Panes.Add(paneList)

    ' display the panes in a tab group
    dockAreaLeft.ChildPaneStyle = ChildPaneStyle.TabGroup

    ' initialize the size of the dock area
    dockAreaLeft.Size = New Size(200, 200)

    ' let the tabs autosize to the tab caption
    dockAreaLeft.GroupSettings.TabSizing = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabs.TabSizing.AutoSize

    ' unpin the panes
    dockAreaLeft.Unpin()

    ' now create the control pane to contain the richtext
    Dim paneText As DockableControlPane = New DockableControlPane("text", "MS RichText", Me.richTextBox1)

    ' create a dock area on the right to contain the rich text
    Dim dockAreaFloat As DockAreaPane = New DockAreaPane(DockedLocation.DockedRight)

    ' initialize the size of the dock area
    dockAreaFloat.Size = New Size(120, 200)

    ' contain the rich text pane in the dock area
    dockAreaFloat.Panes.Add(paneText)

    ' finally, add the dock areas to the dock manager
    manager.DockAreas.AddRange( _
        New DockAreaPane() {dockAreaLeft, dockAreaFloat})

    ' float the rich text dock area but give it a different
    ' floating size
    dockAreaFloat.Float(False, New Rectangle(400, 400, 200, 150))
