TabStyle is used when a button will display additional information when clicked in the optional controls pane. When set to True, a "tab" is displayed on the side of the button so that it appears to open up. This should be used in combination with the BackStageSeparator.

When True, the tab is then used as a "Second Tier Tab" that is intended to show more controls in the optional control pane when clicked.

Important: This property is only used when Checked is True.
