Currently, when scrolling tabs in a TabControl using the mouse wheel, the direction of the scroll is the opposite as tab controls of many other applications, for example all web browsers scroll tabs in the opposite direction as the Telerik RadTabControl.
This behaviour may cause frustration in the end user and damages the user experience. I think it's necessary to expose a way to allow inverting the RadTabControl mouse wheel scroll direction.
Drag and drop from Visual Studio Toolbox to the designer area doesn't allow you to drop the corresponding control inside the content of the selected tab item.
To work this around, add a Grid panel with transparent background inside the RadTabItem's in XAML. You can do this also through the toolbox.
<telerik:RadTabItem x:Name="RadTabItem1" Header="Tab item 1">
<Grid Background="Transparent" />
</telerik:RadTabItem>
TabControl's TabItems aren't properly updated on attempt to change the theme palette variation runtime until any of the items is selected. Check the following video - https://www.screencast.com/t/jMj0EZqFfy.
There are several possible workarounds which include:
private
void
RadTabItem_PreviewMouseDown(
object
sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
if
(e.ChangedButton == MouseButton.Middle)
{
e.Handled =
true
;
}
}
RadTabControl is currently designed to support scrolling of RadTabItems only when any of them is currently focused. An ability to scroll RadTabItems without explicitly focusing them should be provided.
