34 <entry><p>Tabs are used to view parallel data views alternatively. Arrow indicators |
|
35 are shown at both ends of the pane when there are further tabs to scroll in |
|
36 the corresponding direction. Each tab has either a graphic or a text (or both) |
|
37 as a label. The following tab layouts can be used: <ul> |
|
38 <li><p>Two tabs</p></li> |
|
39 <li> <p>Three tabs</p></li> |

|
44 exist simultaneously. They can be scrolled horizontally. However, as a design |
|
45 guideline, the number of tabs should be kept small (the maximum of six tabs |
|
46 is recommended), and the number should not be dynamic. See <xref href="GUID-72DE3EB1-1AF5-4157-8B99-A1C7143DAD2C.dita">Navigation |
