Figure 2–9: SmartFolder Properties dialog box

You use the instance properties in this dialog box as follows:

Tab Labels — This specifies labels for the tabs in the SmartFolder. The Label field contains the label text; the tab numbers in the tab# field correspond directly to page numbers in the SmartContainer that contains the SmartFolder. To leave a blank space with no tab in the SmartFolder, insert a tab and leave its label blank.
Font — This opens the standard font dialog box, in which you specify the font for the SmartFolder’s tab labels. The default font is the “default” selection in the dialog box. The tab height is adjusted according to the font you select, and the label on the Font button changes to use the font you specify.
Insert — This adds a new tab after the selected tab.
Remove — This deletes the selected tab and moves all tabs that were to its right exactly one position to the left, to fill the gap.
Use Fixed Tabs — If checked, this specifies that all SmartFolder tabs have the same width and enables the Width in field, where you supply this value. The default is to allow dynamic sizing, which adjusts the tab widths relative to the lengths of the tab labels.
Width — This specifies a fixed width for the SmartFolder tabs. It is enabled only if you check Use Fixed Tabs.
