tabbed buttons

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

Steve,

There's 3 ways around this problem:

- put the tab in a group and show the horizontal bar to scroll (can be 
annoying)
- Use a pop-up menu ("option") - can also be annoying (as the properties' 
palette menu)
- As Richard mentioned, the old MacOS Control-Panel style with an index of 
the views on the left side (my personal favorite).

For multi-row tabs (which I avoid too) what I do is to reduce the number 
of tabs into
sections, and in each tab section, is a separate (and differently colored) 
tab with its
own subgroups. 

cheers
Xavier
