Description

The Composition - Tabs macro lets you create a panel with tabs on a page.

If you have many tabs or if they have long names, the tabs automatically wrap to the next line.

This macro replaces the legacy Tab Group and Tab macros in the Beta version. See Switching to the new Tabs macro.

The macro editor lets you create and design tabs with titles and content.

In the macro editor, you can:

Add, remove, and drag to reorder tabs.
Give titles for your tabs.
Add content to your tabs. See the Tabs | Supported features in the macro content editor section later on this page
Enable the Full page editor option if your tab content includes a table with more than 16 columns. This ensures you can efficiently resize the columns after publication.
Customize the design of the tabs. The expandable Tabs customizations panel on the left offers flexibility to match your design preferences, with options to adjust tabs' position, style, font size, and color. The following table provides details about the options in the Tabs customizations panel.
