Tabbed Container

In Lowcoder, the Tabbed Container component enables developers to organize content into multiple tabs within a single interface, enhancing user experience by allowing seamless navigation between different sections without leaving the current page.

Key Features:

1. Multiple Tabs: Create and manage multiple tabs, each capable of containing various components, facilitating the organization of related content within a compact space.

2. Customisation: Tailor each tab's title, icon, and content to align with the application's design and functionality requirements.

3. Dynamic Content Loading: Configure tabs to load content dynamically, improving performance by fetching data only when a tab is activated.

4. Event Handling: Implement event handlers to trigger specific actions when users switch tabs, enhancing interactivity and responsiveness.

5. Styling Options: Apply custom styles to the Tabbed Container and its tabs to maintain visual consistency with the overall application design.

Be aware that, by default, components within inactive tabs may be destroyed to optimize performance. To retain their state, adjust the "Destroy Inactive TabPane" setting accordingly.
