TabbedMDIWindow ImageMargin

Docking/MDI for Windows Forms Forum

Hello, I'm trying to set 4 pixel border to a tabbedMDIWindow and I've found the TabStripRenderer.TabStripTabImageMargin property, but this property only is valid for the left margin.
There are any property to set a margin for all borders on the TabbedMDIDocument image?

Thanks!

The tab padding is measured like this if you have images and text on a tab:
(TabStripTabImageMargin) (Image) (TabStripTabTextMargin) (Text) (TabStripTabTextMargin)

OK, thanks for your reply, but for Top and Bottom margins, what can I do?

Thanks!

Right now the renderers use their own fixed values for those. However you can update it by creating a class that inherits the desired renderer to modify and do something like this: 
public override Size MeasureTabStripTab(Graphics g, TabStripPage tabStripPage) {
    Size size = base.MeasureTabStripTab(g, tabStripPage);
    if (tabStripPage.TabStrip.Orientation == Orientation.Horizontal)
        size.Height += 4;
    else
        size.Width += 4;
    return size;
}

OK, this works fine for me.

Thanks!
The latest build of this product (v22.1.3) was released 6 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
