Remarks

The Tab element is an exception to the general rule in XML for Visio that absence means inheritance. Each Tab element in a Tabs element must be specified, or it will be deleted locally. However, the Position and Alignment elements within each Tab element will inherit if omitted.

The Tab element is relevant only when contained in a Shape or StyleSheet element. It is ignored when contained in a DocumentSheet or PageSheet element.
