Idea : 
In the Tab container, the tab name is currently restricted to text.

My idea is to add features to have  :
  • a tool tip when hovering the tab name (particulary useful if using emojis as name (i.e. : ?????) 
  • shapes instead of text tab name (like in labels)
  • small images to use as icones instead of text tab name
Why :

It would allow for a navigation area both compact and clean looking  that hold main selectors, secondary selectors, navigation menus to reporting and button for features and workflow while retaining clarity for the end-users as to which feature is found where. It would also integrate guidance and accessibility features with the tool tip if needed.

Workaround :

  • Use emoji as a suboptimal solution. As choice is thin : no funnel, rendering vary from OS to OS (Win11?win10?MacOS), creatung a learning curve for users
