The Exontrol ExTab Component is a skinnable tab control designed to organize content into multiple pages within the same area of a form or dialog, similar to notebook dividers or file cabinet labels. This allows applications to present related information or grouped controls on separate tabs, improving both clarity and user experience.

The ExTab library includes two key components:

• TabBuilder - a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor that allows you to easily create and customize tab skin files.
• Tab - the main tab control that supports the use of any skin files created with TabBuilder, enabling a highly customizable and visually appealing interface.

This powerful combination lets you implement modern, theme-aware tabbed interfaces with minimal effort.

1. Appearance & Styling
