Customize tab content height in EJ2 TypeScript Tab control

4 Jan 20259 minutes to read

You can adjust the Tab content height using the heightAdjustMode property. By default, this property is set to Content. Here are the available options:

None: Sets each tab content height based on the Tab height. This option is only used when the tab component has a height property set.
Auto: Sets all tab content heights to match the height of the tallest tab content.
Content: Sets each tab content height based on its own content (default behavior).
Fill: Sets each tab content height to fill the full height of the Tab’s parent element.
