I placed an ultratabcontrol onto my form.
Next i set the ultraTabControl's TabButtonStyle property to FlatBorderless
Next i set the controls ActiveTabAppearence.ImageBackground to an image that i would like my tab to show when selected. everything works perfectly.
Lastly I set the ultraTabcontrol's Appearence.ImageBackground to an image that i would like my tab to display when the tab is not selected.
unfortunatly when i do this I end up with tabs that look perfect....but my client area of the control also has the unselected tab appearence as well. I want those two images to only be applied to the tab's, not the client area. is this a bug? have i incorrectly set values? am i missing something?
Sorry about the delayed response. One option is to set the ImageBackgroundAlpha on the Appearance to Opaque and the ImageBackgroundAlpha of the ClientAreaAppearance to Transparent. Another option is to manually set the ImageBackground on each individual tab, but this is naturally more effort than the first option.

except that has no effect, both ways i get the same effect. the tabs get the correct images but the client area ALSO gets the tab unselected image. i only want to tabs to have images.
