XUITabBarRenderer

Description

Tab bars look different on different operating systems and even between different applications on the same operating system. To handle this, XUITabBar outsources its appearance to a Renderer. Renderers are classes that implement this interface. They expose methods to XUITabBar to alter its appearance. Several example renderers are included with XUI.
