Hello all,

I need your help in the following.

I have created a custom tab control as seen in the attached image. Please tell me how to extend the white color in the circled area in the image for the selected tab.

I haven't done it before but my guess would be writing an event handler for the tab control's DrawItem event that styles the tab the way you want. Anyone know of a better way?

The Onpaint event of the TabControl?

Cheap and fast method is to pad the text with spaces on both sides (to keep it centered).
