Hi David,

Generally this can happen if you have lots of records in the grid.

Hi,

     I face a similar situation. Is there a way by which I can navigate the Tab header items (using Arrow keys) without loading the contents of the respective Tab (indicated with a special border). Upon pressing Enter key, I would like to see the contents of the selected tab being loaded. Pls let me know how to achieve this.

Thanks.

Hi Tihomir,

                 Thanks for your response. I believe my requirement wasn't clear in my earlier post. My sincere apologies.Reiterating my requirement as below:

        Is there a way by which I can navigate the Tab header items (using Arrow keys) without loading the contents of the respective Tab. Upon pressing Enter key in the tab which has the focus (by way of navigating via Arrow keys), I would like to see the contents of that tab being loaded.
 
I wanted a border for the tab header (to indicate the active tab which was navigated to via Arrow key) and not for the tab content in my earlier post (I believe, this is where I wasn't clear on my post)

I have raised a support ticket as well and seems like, this feature is not available currently. Would be great if you could let me know how to achieve it.

Thanks,
Satish

Hello Satish,

The new scenario you described is almost identical to the one implemented in the example I sent you in my previous post. In fact, the only necessary change in the example would be to move the red border from the tab content to the tab header by re-styling it. However, the TabControl does not allow you to change only the selected TabItem header, without displaying the corresponding content area. Besides, if you actually need to do exactly what you described in your last post, it is rather impractical to use a TabControl since you will have to work around the native functionality of the control. It makes much more sense to simply use a row of properly styled buttons and display the content you want later on.
