Tab is an HTML component that makes exploring and switching between different views easier.
Bootstrap Tabs
Bootstrap Tabs add quick, dynamic tab functionality to transition through panes of local content, even via dropdown menus.
Propeller Tabs
Propeller Tabs consist of Bootstrap HTML structure with Propeller customized classes and jQuery based on material design standards. Add .pmd-tabs
to nav tag for applying Propeller Theme to the tabs. .pmd-tabs-bg
is used to add a background to the tabs.
Equal Width Tabs
Equal Width Tabs have same width, calculated either as the view width divided by the number of tabs, or based on the widest tab label. Add .nav-justified
to the list to create fixed tabs.
Scrollable Tabs
Scrollable tabs display a subset of tabs at any given moment. They can contain longer tab labels and a larger number of tabs than fixed tabs. To create scrollable tabs, add attribute scroll="true"
to the div with the class .pmd-tabs
.
Tabs with Dropdown
Add Propeller's Dropdown menu to make it a part of tab. To do so create a drop down list within the tablist and add .dropdown-menu
to it.
Tabs without background
Remove .pmd-tabs-bg
to remove the background color/background image.
