Tabs on the left and horizontal text

[Hest]

Hello all

A little question about tabs. I have made a little gui with tabs on the left side. Is it possible to make the text/label horizontal instead of vertical?

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <TabConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form2 = GUICreate("Form1", 630, 316, 204, 296)
$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(236, 56, 305, 193,BitOR($WS_CHILD, $TCS_FORCEICONLEFT, $TCS_VERTICAL, $TCS_MULTILINE))
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $TCM_SETITEMSIZE, 0, BitOR(50, BitShift(50, -16)))

;~ GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKWIDTH+$GUI_DOCKHEIGHT)
$TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("TabSheet1")
$TabSheet2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("TabSheet2")
$TabSheet3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("TabSheet3")
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Hi Hest,

Try taking a look at the example code in help under the GUICtrlCreateTabItem topic.

The example has three tabs that are horizontal.

Exactly. Not sure if it's even possible, but couldn't find any info about it.

lol, took me quite a lot to find this one, I guess that my searching capabilities are rusty. hope this is what you're looking for. By the way, it's using Malkey's string rotate function.
