Vertical TabControl - can't get rid of the border line

[Michal]

Hi,

I have a vertical tab control with TabStripPlacement  set to Left. In this scenario I get a unwanted gray line. (see TabControl StripLeft.PNG)

When I change the code to tab strip placed on the Top it is correctly rendered with no line (see TabControl StripTop.PNG)

Here is my xaml:

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">

    <telerik:RadTabControl Grid.Row="2"  TabStripPlacement="Left" TabOrientation="Vertical" Align="Right" >
        <telerik:RadTabItem Height="Auto" VerticalAlignment="Top" Header="Test 1"  >
            <Grid Background="White"></Grid>
        </telerik:RadTabItem>

        <telerik:RadTabItem Height="Auto" VerticalAlignment="Top" Header="Test 2"  >
            <Grid Background="White"></Grid>
        </telerik:RadTabItem>
    </telerik:RadTabControl>
</Grid>

How can I get rid of the gray line when the TabStripPlacement is set to Left?

Hi Michal,

You can change the BorderThickness of the RadTabControl. By default its value is "1 0 1 1". And in your case, when setting the TabStripPlacement to Left, you can change the BorderThickness to "0 1 1 1".

Please give this a try and let me know if it works for you.

Kind regards,

That worked thank you.

Maybe when you set the TabStripPlacement="Left" the BorderThicknes should be changed "0 1 1 1" automatically.

Hello Michal,

Our further investigation indicated that this is actually an issue in the control as it should automatically remove this border. But it seems some of the visual states of the control aren't properly applied. Therefore I logged an item in our PITS where you can track the progress of the issue.

I also updated your Telerik account for bringing this case to our attention.

All the best,
