Tab Box<<Set Style("Tab"|"Combo" |"Outline"|"Vertical Spread"|"Horizontal Spread"|"Minimize Size")

Changes the appearance of the tab box from a tab to a combo box or outline node.

"Vertical Spread" and "Horizontal Spread" change the orientation of the tab title.

See Tab Box and Tab Page Box in the Scripting Guide for an example.

Tab Box<<Set Tab Margin(n|{...})

Sets the tab margin for the tab box. If a single number is specified, all four margins are set to that number of pixels. If a list of two numbers is specified, the left and right margins are set to the first number, and the top and bottom margins are set to the second number. If a list of four numbers is specified, the margins are set in this order: {left, top, right, bottom}.

Tab Box<<Show Tabs(Boolean)
