A tab control based on WPF chrome tabs, modified to work with the MVVM pattern. WPF chrome tabs is a tab control modeled after the tabs in Google's Chrome browser.
New features include:
- Support for dragging tabs to new windows, and snapping them back into tabs.
- Bindable property to lock tabs
- Bindable property to show/hide "add tab" button
- Bindable property for selected tab brush
- Bindable property to drag window instead when dragging the last remaining tab.
Available on NuGet.
The basic functionality can be done as simple as :
xaml:
xmlns:ct="clr-namespace:ChromeTabs;assembly=ChromeTabs"
<ct:ChromeTabControl ItemsSource="{Binding ItemCollection}"
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedTab}"
AddTabCommand="{Binding AddTabCommand}"
CloseTabCommand="{Binding CloseTabCommand}">
viewmodel:
public ObservableCollection<MyTabClass> ItemCollection { get; set; }
public MyTabClass SelectedTab { get; set; }
(...)
void CloseTabCommandAction(MyTabClass tab)
{
ItemCollection.Remove(tab);
}
void AddTabCommandAction()
{
ItemCollection.Add(New MyTabClass());
}
See the demo project for advanced functionality like tab tearing, snapping windows to tabs, tab reordering, context menus and more.
