TabbedMdiHost Class

public class TabbedMdiHost : MdiHostBase, IDockTarget

public TabbedMdiHost()

public bool CanDocumentTabsDrag { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if document tabs may be dragged to another location; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

Remarks

This setting only affects documents whose CanDragTab property is set to null. Any other setting on the document instance overrides this global setting.

public bool CanDocumentsAttach { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if documents may be attached to another document; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

Remarks

This setting only affects documents whose CanAttach property is set to null. Any other setting on the document instance overrides this global setting.

public bool CanDocumentsCloseOnMiddleClick { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if documents can be closed by clicking the tab with the middle mouse button; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

public bool CanDocumentsDock { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if documents can be docked to a new container; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

Remarks

This setting only affects documents whose CanDock property is set to null. Any other setting on the document instance overrides this global setting.

public FrameworkElement Child { get; set; }

Property Value

FrameworkElement:

The FrameworkElement child of the host. The default value is null.

public bool ContainersHaveNewTabButtons { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if containers have new tab buttons; otherwise, false. The default value is false.

public object EmptyContent { get; set; }

Property Value

object:

The content to display when there are no documents visible in the host.

public DataTemplate EmptyContentTemplate { get; set; }

Property Value

DataTemplate:

The DataTemplate to display when there are no documents visible in the host.

public bool HasTabCloseButtons { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if close buttons should appear on document tabs; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

public bool HasTabImages { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if document tabs display an embedded image when one is available; otherwise, false. The default value is false.

public bool HasTabPinButtons { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if pin buttons should appear on document tabs (normal layout kind); otherwise, false. The default value is false.

public bool HasTabPromoteButtons { get; set; }

Property Value

bool:

true if promote buttons should appear on document tabs (preview layout kind); otherwise, false. The default value is true.

protected override IEnumerator LogicalChildren { get; }

Property Value

IEnumerator:

An enumerator for logical child elements of this element.

public double MaxTabExtent { get; set; }

Property Value

double:

The maximum extent of a tab. The default value is 430.0.

Remarks

Set the MinTabExtent to the same as the MaxTabExtent to produce fixed-size tabs.

The Style set by default in TabItemContainerStyle has a HeaderTemplate that contains a TextBlock whose Text property is bound to the TabTextResolved property. Note that the TextBlock via its TextTrimming property will apply character ellipses to the end of any tab text that exceeds the TextBlock width allowed by MaxTabExtent.

File name display scenarios generally wish to place ellipses in the middle of the trimmed text instead of at the end, however this UI platform doesn't support text trimming features in the middle of text. To support this feature, we have a TitleConverter value converter in place in the TextBlock.Text property binding that receives a text string and will replace the middle part of the string with ellipses if the string is too long character-wise. Ensure that the MaxTabExtent is wide enough to handle the maximum string size returned by the title value converter, or else a scenario could occur where the value converter places ellipses in the middle of the text and the system via TextBlock.TextTrimming places ellipses at the end of the text as well.

Note that increasing the MaxTabExtent property will not allow more tab text characters to show unless you also update the properties of the title value converter to allow a longer text result.

public double MinTabExtent { get; set; }

Property Value

double:

The minimum extent of a tab. The default value is 30.0.

Remarks

Set the MinTabExtent to the same as the MaxTabExtent to produce fixed-size tabs. This property will be ignored when a TabOverflowBehavior that involves shrinking is active and the tabs enter an overflow scenario.

public Style TabControlStyle { get; set; }

Property Value

Style:

The Style to use for the contained tab controls in a TabbedMdiContainer.

public Style TabItemContainerStyle { get; set; }

Property Value

Style:

The Style to use for rendering the tab item containers in a TabbedMdiContainer.

public TabOverflowBehavior TabOverflowBehavior { get; set; }

Property Value

TabOverflowBehavior:

The overflow behavior of the document tabs. The default value is Menu.

public Side TabStripPlacement { get; set; }

Property Value

Side:

A Side indicating the side upon which the tabs are located. The default value is Top.
