[Solved] Best way to use the tabcontrol?

[Michael Schreiber]

What is the best way to deal with the Tab control as far as compentizing the code?

Do I create independant UserControls and embed the user control in the Telerik tab control?

I don't want to have all the controls be in the main page of the application.

Thanks
Michael

Hello Michael Schreiber,

 If you are not planning to Bind the TabControl, but use it with static xaml created RadTabItems - I will go with UserControls and add them as content to the TabItems. This will separate the things and won't allow you to mess with the elements between the tabs.
Hope this will help you.

All the best,

Thanks Milo.

Can you give me an example of how to add a User Control as Content to the telerik tab control. 

I notice that you are creating a MVVM sample tab application "221447_tabcontrolbinding".

Would you be able to add a View folder to the solution and add a MVVMLightView.xaml file.  See attached image.

Then add the new mvvmlightView.xaml control into the telerik tab control as content.

Thanks
Michael
