| ==Tabs and Pages in Dialogs==
| | {{ Moved To Community | KDE_Visual_Design_Group/HIG/Tabs Pages }} |
| | |
| '''General Guidelines'''
| |
| | |
| If a control affects only one tab or page in the dialog, place it on that tab/page. If it affects every tab/page in the dialog, place it outside, for example beside the window's OK and Cancel buttons.
| |
| | |
| Make sure changes on one tab will not change options on another tab.

| ===Tabbed Dialogs===
| |
| | |
| '''When to Use'''
| |
| | |
| Use tabbed dialogs when you have a limited number of tabs (max. 6).
| |
| If you cannot see all the tabs without scrolling or splitting them into multiple rows, you are probably using too many and should use a paged dialog instead.

| ===Paged Dialogs===
| |
| | |
| '''When to Use'''
| |
| | |
| Always use paged dialogs for configuration dialogs - assuming that there is more than one section of options to be configured.
| |
| For other dialogs, use paged dialogs if there are too many tabs to put them into a tabbed dialog.

| | |
| ===Accessibility===
| |
| Do not assign accelerator keys to tab and paged dialog labels. Assign an access key to every other control on each page, however.
