    Default Vertical QTabBar

    How could I modify a QTabBar at runtime such that it switches between vertical and horizontal orientation of the tabs ? (similar to QToolBar, but I need the widget to change it's orientation)

    If the QTabBar is inside a QTabWidget then you could use QTabWidget::setTabPosition.

    OriginalCopy,
    I hope instead of writing a new widget from scratch, for the time being, we can have a
    1) QTabWIdget, then
    2) setTabPosition(QTabWidget::East or West)
    3) Then Fix the widget width to some constant value say (23).
    like...
    QTabWidget::setFixedWidth(23);

    We hope that In future versions of Qt, we will find a readymade Vertcal TabBar

    Qt Code:
    1. tabBar->setShape(QTabBar::RoundedWest);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode
