Remarks

When the MDI Tabbed Groups feature is enabled, you must know what operations are allowed on the tabs of a particular window. This method analyzes the current layout of tabbed windows and returns a combination of flags that can be used to build, for example, a shortcut menu.

You can create a new vertical tab group when all tabbed windows are aligned vertically, or when there is only one tabbed window.

You can create a new horizontal tab group when all tabbed windows are aligned horizontally, or when there is only one tabbed window.

You can move a tab to the previous group only if there is more than one tab in a tabbed window.

You can move a tab to the next group only if there is more than one tab in a tabbed window.
