| − | If a control affects only one tab or page in the dialog, place it on that tab/page. If it affects every tab/page in the dialog, place it outside, for example beside the window's OK and Cancel buttons.

| − | Make sure changes on one tab will not change options on another tab.

| − | '''When to Use'''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Use tabbed dialogs when you have a limited number of tabs (max. 6).
| + | |
| − | If you cannot see all the tabs without scrolling or splitting them into multiple rows, you are probably using too many and should use a paged dialog instead.

| − | '''When to Use'''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Always use paged dialogs for configuration dialogs - assuming that there is more than one section of options to be configured.
| + | |
| − | For other dialogs, use paged dialogs if there are too many tabs to put them into a tabbed dialog.
