3. no ambiguity issue due to 'cDlg.cls' constants. Thanks.
However, one thing I noticed in the new release in your demo application. The tab separators are not visible when TabsPerRow = 4 alone (with Tabs Count = 7). Please see screenshot at the end of this message. Is that correct? Or, am I missing something? Anyway, in my own project, I don't have this issue when VisualStyles is ON. But, when VisualStyles is OFF and TabsPerRow < Tabs Count, then for some cases of TabsPerRow (for e.g. TabsPerRow=3 and Tabs Count = 7), the bottom lines of one or two tabs do not appear. For other cases, the bottom lines appear properly. I dont know why.
Thanks for your reports, they are very helpful!
Please test now, the issues should be fixed.

In other words, if "ant", "best best best", "cat", "dog", "egg" are my tab captions for 5 tabs, I should have the additional option to make them appear horizontally itself, even when TabOrientation is left or right. And, "best best best" should be able to wrap in 2 lines (when wrapping is on and width of tab is less to hold "best best best").
(#) the present default case of the captions appearing tilted 90 degrees also I need. The feature I am requesting is an additional option so that using it one can have the captions appear horizontally also.
Kind regards.
Yes, I know. But that would take some important work, to add that option and make everything to work right on this already complex control.
I made it this way because I copied exactly what the original SSTab did, but I agree that having the captions rotated is not a good idea.
I don't know if I will ever add that, because in my VB6 projects I never needed it so far.
You could try this control for that.
