| <li>Sep 11 '13 <a href="apichanges.html#autoscroll">Added ability to scroll document tabs when dragging a TopComponent |
| over the editor area.</a> |
| <p> |
| TabDisplayer no implements java.awt.dnd.Autoscroll interface. The new |
| methods just delegate to TabDisplayerUI. |
| The actual implementation is in BasicScrollingTabDisplayerUI class |
| which scrolls the tabs to the left or to the right when a TopComponent |
| is being dragged over its left or right edge. |

| <li>Jun 12 '13 <a href="apichanges.html#componentconverter">Added getter and setter for ComponentConverter to TabDisplayer class.</a> |
| <p> |
| TabDisplayer class has getter and setter for ComponentConverter so that its |
| UI delegate can calculate proper minimum size when ComponentConverter is being used. |

| <h3>Use Cases</h3> |
| <answer id="arch-usecases"> |
| Primary use cases are in the NetBeans window system, as top level containers in the main window; future use cases |
| include providing a consistent UI for tabs in the property sheet, the component inspector and the output window, but |
| this probably will not happen for 4.0. |

| <h3>Exported Interfaces</h3> |

| This table lists all of the module exported APIs |
| with |
| defined stability classifications. It is generated |
| based on answers to questions about the architecture |
| of the module. <a href="architecture-summary.html">Read them all</a>... |

| API contains classes used only by <em>switchers</em> accessible through main menu in "Window/Documents..." |
| and "Go To/Recent Document". Besides this module the package is used from core/windows too. |
| Classes contained in the package are rather |
| general and therefore this package could be moved in the future. It is placed here only due to current |
| modules dependencies. Consequently the package is not intended for external use.<br> For more |
| information on <code>SwitcherTable</code> and <code>SwitcherTableItem</code> see a javadoc. |
