One of the features found in all good TabControl implementations is the ability to act as a TabStrip.

As the KryptonNavigator is attempting to exceed the standards of a TabControl we must provide at least that level of capability when appropriate. Hence the addition of two extra modes that provide TabStrip style variations on the existing inside and outside check buttons.

The two new modes are called BarCheckButtonOnly and BarCheckButtonGroupOnly. The display for the selected page is never shown and the control has the ability to size itself correctly when defined to have AutoSize set.

Typical usage of the control would be to dock it against one of the Form/Control edges and set AutoSize to True. You can then hook into the SelectedPageChanged event and update the main part of your application as appropriate.

Here are pictures of the two modes in action.
