Description Klaus Rogall CLA 2006-10-10 09:43:18 EDT
Is this bugzilla portal also the place for proposals? Beside fixing bugs you might think about more "cool" custom widgets; here is a proposal:

TabFolder/CTabFolder displays its tab item headline texts in one single row. CTabFolder also displays an "overflow information" with the number of invisible tab items, but in some cases it would be nice to see all of them. How about having multiple rows for the tab item texts (probalbly with a defined maximum number of rows), similar to the "System Properties" tabs in the Windows control panel?

Thats a good idea.  We just need to find someone to work on it.  I'm marking this bug as helpwanted.  Perhaps someone from the community will step up.

There are several other defects that require same functionality (58945)
