如何轻松地重新排序 TabControl？

Question

I have a TabControl which I have designed in the VS2005 designer that has about 7 tabs.

How can I easily switch the order of the tabs around?

I put one tab at the end in a rush, but now I want it somewhere in the middle.

Answer 1

In the properties of the tab control there's a TabPages collection. You should be able to shuffle them around in there. Just click the ellipses next to TabPages and a dialog will appear allowing you to move each one up or down in the order.

Answer 2

Mark the TabControl in the Designer.

In the Properties Window (F4) you have a TabPages Property. You can open a new Window where you can reorder the TabPages.

If you want to do that at runtime you have to do

tabControl.TabPages.Remove(tabPage1);
tabControl.TabPages.Add(tabPage1); // add to the end
tabControl.TabPages.Insert(2, tabPage1); // add on specific position

Answer 3

Open FormName.Designer.cs.

Find the line this.tabControl1.Controls.Add ....

You can change the order here.
