Syntax
'Declaration

public SharedControlsCollection SharedControls {get;}
Example
The following sample code illustrates how to share controls among tabs.

Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabs
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabControl

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

    ' Create a new control
    Dim tb As New TextBox()
    
    tb.Location = New Point(20, 20)
    tb.Size = New Size(80, 20)

    ' Add it to the SharedControls collection.
    ' This will cause the the textbox to be displayed
    ' on every tab by default.
    Me.ultraTabControl1.SharedControls.Add(tb)

    ' Add the tab to the first 2 tab's ExcludedSharedControls
    ' collections. This will prevent the control from being
    ' shown on those tabs.
    Me.ultraTabControl1.Tabs(0).ExcludedSharedControls.Add(tb)
    Me.ultraTabControl1.Tabs(1).ExcludedSharedControls.Add(tb)

    ' The 'HasExcludedSharedControls' property returns true if
    ' the 'ExcludedSharedControls' collection has been created
    ' and it contains at least 1 control. This is preferable to
    ' checking the 'Count' property of the 'ExcludedSharedControls'
    ' collection since the get on the 'ExcludedSharedControls'
    ' property will allocate a collection if one doesn't exist.
    If Me.ultraTabControl1.Tabs(1).HasExcludedSharedControls = True Then
        '...
    End If

End Sub
using System.Diagnostics;
using Infragistics.Win;
using Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabs;
using Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabControl;


private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	// Create a new control
	TextBox tb = new TextBox();

	tb.Location = new Point(20,20);
	tb.Size = new Size(80, 20);

	// Add it to the SharedControls collection.
	// This will cause the the textbox to be displayed
	// on every tab by default.
	this.ultraTabControl1.SharedControls.Add( tb );

	// Add the tab to the first 2 tab's ExcludedSharedControls
	// collections. This will prevent the control from being
	// shown on those tabs.
	this.ultraTabControl1.Tabs[0].ExcludedSharedControls.Add (tb );
	this.ultraTabControl1.Tabs[1].ExcludedSharedControls.Add (tb );

	// The 'HasExcludedSharedControls' property returns true if
	// the 'ExcludedSharedControls' collection has been created
	// and it contains at least 1 control. This is preferable to
	// checking the 'Count' property of the 'ExcludedSharedControls'

	// property will allocate a collection if one doesn't exist.
	if ( this.ultraTabControl1.Tabs[1].HasExcludedSharedControls == true )
	{
		//...
	}
