/ Guidelines: Base control elements / Merlin notebook

Merlin notebook

Advantages of the Merlin notebook:

  • Visible tabs: < 7+-2 tabs
  • Easy access to all tabs via popup menu

  • Try use 7+-2 tabs in the notebook;
  • The length of text on tabs should be 5 or more characters; If writing 2 words then add 1 space in the beginning and the end, else the text on selected tab doesn't fit;
  • In secondary settings notebooks use tabs of 2 colors (selected tab and non selected tabs);

Avoid the wrong design:

  • Don't use sub-pages in Merlin notebooks
  • Don't use short words (3-4 characters) in title of tab
