Tabs in user interfaces facilitate seamless navigation between app sections.

tab = ui.addTabs( parent, list?, options?, width?, height? ) → ui object: Tabs

Default Tab variant for mobile screens is fullWidth unless provided.

Here are the available methods of the Tabs Component.

Examples

Example - Basic

class Main extends App

        // Initialize tab names array
        var tabs = ["Tab 1", "Tab 2", "Tab 3"]

        // Adds a tab component to the main layout.
        this.tabs = ui.addTabs(this.main, tabs, "", 0.8, 0.8)

        // Handle tab changes
