Hi everyone,

I am a new Java and Netbeans user.
I would like to build a GUI application and I wondered if I can create vertical tabs using Netbeans IDE GUI building features.

Does anyone know how to do it?

Thanks

You can place the tab vertically.
take a JTabpane from pallate, I mean drag and drop it on Dialog.
Then select that tabpane and go to properties window. And there you will find property as "tabPlacement". Just change it to "left".

I hope this will help you.
