class: Tab

[18:7] extends: FxObj

The Tab class wraps the JavaFX Tab, which represents a single selectable tab within a TabPane. Each Tab holds a label, an optional graphic icon, and a content node that is displayed in the TabPane body when that tab is selected. Tabs can be individually disabled or made non-closable regardless of the TabPane closing policy. Note that Tab does not extend Node or Region in JavaFX -- it is not part of the scene graph on its own. Its visual appearance is controlled entirely through the skin of the owning TabPane and the CSS sub-structure of that skin. Because of this, the standard Node/Region/Control CSS property hierarchy does not apply directly to Tab.
