[jira] Commented: (PIVOT-342) Tab enhancements

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-342?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12911120#action_12911120 ] 

Chris Bartlett commented on PIVOT-342:
--------------------------------------

Another enhancement ...

Allow drag & drop re-ordering of tabs (enabled through a style)

In its simplest form it would only need to support a single TabPane as both the drag source & target, but could be enhanced further to allow tabs to be dragged between different TabPanes.  

Might be best achieved through the use of some new events and preview/veto functionality.

> Add some enhancements to Tabs, to have them appear like in modern Browsers (and other tools, like Eclipse):
> - I've seen that there is the ability to put them on top, or at left using the orientation attribute, but not on bottom and on the right
> side, we could add an attribute like position instead
> - closing a tab, I've seen that there is the attribute, but no sample of it :-) . 
>   Could be interesting to specify also the type of closure (when enabled), like the cross to the right of any (closeable) tab, or like in some applications only one close button at the right corner where tabs are placed
> - have tabs using more than 1 line
>   Could be done using a config option ... by default off.
> - when I have more Tabs than the available space, will it be possible to specify what to do ? 
>   Like choosing to rearrange them in more than 1 line (as in Substance), or make a button and open a popup with the list of others (like in Eclipse), or at left and right corner draw two buttons with arrows to scroll them in the available space or ...
> On Tabs that's all ... but probably some of these features could be useful also for other components (accordions, popup, menus, etc ...) when I have more elements than the available space.
> Note that the current behavior on Tabs (Pivot 1.3 and upper) is to display left and right arrows when there are too many tabs to fit in the available space.
