I am using the VS2005 template for my tabstrip currently. As the application grows, the number of tabs grows along with it. That's great, but I don't know how to make this template into a MultiRow tabstrip. I've tried to compare the other templates to this one, but can't see anything that makes a single row different than a multirow. Is this possible? Can I make my single row VS2005 tabstrip into a multirow?
Regards,
Ryan

In order to have a multiple row TabStrip, you would need to:
1. Set the TabStrip's MultiRow to true;
2. Set the TabStrip's Width to give it a fixed pixel width (do not give it a non-fixed value such as 100%);
Once you set those two properties, the TabStrip will automatically wrap tab items into multiple rows. Particular for VS2005 template, you will also need to set the _Default look items' OverlapDepth to 0, the original value is 8. Overlapping tabs can not be used in multiple row TabStrip because it will cause the last Tab of the previous row and the first tab of the next row to "overlap", which is obviously not desired.
