Tab Strip Overview
This article provides information about the Tab Strip component and its core features.
The Tab Strip is defined through the <TelerikTabStrip> tag that accepts children of type <TelerikTab>. Inside the tabs you can add content like in any other container, including other components.
The tab exposes a Title attribute that is the text rendered in the heading. It also offers the Disabled attribute that allows you to disable its selection.
To control the position of the tab titles, the main tab strip tag exposes the optional TabPosition attribute that takes a member of the Telerik.Blazor.Components.TabStrip.TabPosition enumeration:
-
Top(default) LeftRightBottom
A Telerik Tab Strip with example reference, tab position and disabled tab

<TelerikTabStrip TabPosition="Telerik.Blazor.Components.TabStrip.TabPosition.Left" @ref="myTabStrip">
<TelerikTab Title="First">
First tab content.
</TelerikTab>
<TelerikTab Title="Second" Disabled="true">

</TelerikTab>
<TelerikTab Title="Third">

</TelerikTab>
</TelerikTabStrip>
@code {
Telerik.Blazor.Components.TabStrip.TelerikTabStrip myTabStrip;
}
