Tabbed Form Control

The new TabbedForm control coming to Telerik UI for WinForms with R1 2019, enables displaying tabs in the title bar of the form, resembling the experience in modern web browsers and providing an easy and fast way to switch between different views of the application. The control offers support for various elements such as icons, buttons and shapes, as well as to define the height of the tabs to have these displayed better. In addition, tabs in the control can be pinned and drag & dropped, where the latter can be used to either reorder the tabs or even open a tab in a separate window. The TabbedForm control includes design-time support making it super easy to add tabs in design time.
