Disable Scroll Viewer on Tab Control

Question

I have a scroll viewer over my tab control e.g.

<ScrollViewer>
   <TabControl>
        <!-- my tabs -->

However in one of the tabs there is a list view and I was wondering if there is a way to disable / turn off the scroll viewer just for this tab?

Answer 1

You can use a binding between the ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility and the TabControl.SelectedTab properties. Then apply a converter that disables the scroll bar of the ScrollViewer when the current tab is the tab containing the list view.

Answer 2

Do you really want the ScrollViewer outside of the TabControl? You could set the ScrollViewer in each pane you need it. Advantage: you only have a ScrollViewer where you want it and you don't scroll the complete TabControl and you always will see the headers.
