Using the TabBar control lets the tabs be directly determined by the data so that you can change the view or views in any way.
A TabBar control has the following default characteristics:
Characteristic | Description |
---|---|
Preferred size | A width wide enough to contain all label text, plus any padding, and a height tall enough for the label text. The default tab height is determined by the font, style, and skin applied to the control. If you set an explicit height using the tabHeight property, that value overrides the default value. |
Control resizing rules | TabBar controls do not resize by default. Specify percentage sizes if you want your TabBar to resize based on the size of its parent container. |
Padding | 0 pixels for the left and right properties. |
The <mx:TabBar>
tag inherits all of the tag attributes
of its superclass, and adds the following tag attributes:
<mx:TabBar Styles firstTabStyleName="Value of thetabStyleName
property" horizontalAlign="left|center|right" horizontalGap="-1" lastTabStyleName="Value of thetabStyleName
property" selectedTabTextStyleName="activeTabStyle" tabHeight="undefined" tabStyleName="Tab" tabWidth="undefined" verticalAlign="top|middle|bottom" verticalGap="-1" Events itemClick="No default" > ... child tags ... </mx:TabBar>
