Form settings

FormTab

The FormTab element is used for the definition of tab elements in the user interface. FormTabs group input forms with different aspects of a workflow so that the user can switch between these tabs to administer the data. Workflow-Actions (SAVE, DELETE, ...) are performed for all FormTabs together.

The FormTabs will not be rendered if there is only one defined in the Form.
