Tab

An interface component that lets you navigate around an app. A tab serves as the starting point for viewing, editing, and entering information for a particular object. When you click a tab at the top of the page, the corresponding tab home page for that object appears. A tab can be associated with an object, a Web page, or a Visualforce page.

• Capitalize the names of all tabs in the application. Refer to them using the exact spelling in the user interface. For example: Accounts tab, not Account tab. Don't capitalize tab in general usage.
• When describing an action on a tab, use on the tab_name tab, not in the tab_name tab.
• In the UI, add “ - Selected” to the hover text for the selected tab; for example, Accounts - Selected.
