Tab border

ColinRule

I am trying the example in the help, and seeing the screenshots there.
My tabs have a line under the tab, I would prefer this to blend.

Please advise how to achieve this.

PaneColour=SYS_PARAMS<198,4>
IF PaneColour="" THEN PaneColour="White"
ColorFill = "Vertical(Red, Red, Border(Grey))"
SWAP "Red" WITH PaneColour IN ColorFill

TabColours=""
TabColours<1,1>="Black" ;TabColours<1,2>=ColorFill
TabColours<3,1>="Blue"

Make the physical tab control a bit taller.

draw the tab on the form slightly higher.

Personally I usually set it about 30 high to allow appropriate space for images as well.

The form designer height represents the tab caption height or thereabouts

what @KevinFournier said. *taller*

Well that was easy
Thanks
