Examples

The following code example creates a TabControl with five TabPage objects. This example uses the RowCount property to get the number of rows currently in the tabControl1 tab strip.

using namespace System::Drawing;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
public ref class Form1: public Form
{
public:
   Form1()
   {
      TabControl^ tabControl1 = gcnew TabControl;
      TabPage^ tabPage1 = gcnew TabPage;
      TabPage^ tabPage2 = gcnew TabPage;
      TabPage^ tabPage3 = gcnew TabPage;
      TabPage^ tabPage4 = gcnew TabPage;
      TabPage^ tabPage5 = gcnew TabPage;
      Label^ label1 = gcnew Label;
      
      // Allows multiple rows of tabs in the tabControl1 tab strip.
      tabControl1->Multiline = true;
      tabControl1->SizeMode = TabSizeMode::FillToRight;
      tabControl1->Padding = Point(15,5);
      array<Control^>^temp0 = {tabPage1,tabPage2,tabPage3,tabPage4,tabPage5};
      tabControl1->Controls->AddRange( temp0 );
      tabControl1->Location = Point(35,65);
      tabControl1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 220, 180 );
      
      // Gets the number of rows currently in the tabControl1 tab strip.
      // Assigns int value to the rows variable.
      int rows = tabControl1->RowCount;
      label1->Text = System::String::Concat( "There are ", rows, " rows of tabs in the tabControl1 tab strip." );
      label1->Location = Point(35,25);
      label1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 220, 30 );

Remarks

Use the RowCount property when the Multiline property is true and you want to know the number of rows that the tabs occupy.
