Advanced Tab Panel can have left, right, top and bottom side tabs

Advanced TabPanel is a widget that renders a GWT panel with tabs band displaying position on the top, bottom, left or right side of this panel. The main features of the component are:

  • tabs position cutomization
  • custom tabs band rendering
  • custom contant and tab borders rendering

In opposite to other advanced components it doesn't require display() method invocation and redraws tabs band every time a new tab added or selected.

You can find sample of Advanced TabPanel usage below.

Sample

The next sample illustrates how to make nested tab panels. 





AdvancedTabPanel panel1 = new AdvancedTabPanel(TabPosition.LEFT);
AdvancedTabPanel panel2 = new AdvancedTabPanel(TabPosition.BOTTOM);

panel1.addTab(new Label("Nested Tabs"), panel2);

Note that the display() method is not invoked.
