I want to use a tabbed frame with more tabs than can be seen on a single row.
This is illustrated with the attached Perl that generates 30 tabbed frames but you can only see 26 of them
I appreciate that I can see more by increasing the width value in the Label definition but I do
want to have a value here which can be less than that required for the total number of tabbed frames I
want to use.
Is there any way I can get multiple rows of tabs?
use strict "vars";
use Tk;
use Tk::TabFrame;
my ($a_tbfr, $tab_mw, $b_tbfr, $frame_wg);
my ($label_text, $CurrentSelection, $child, $childb, $childc, $childd)
+;
my ($CurrentSelectionC, $CurrentSelectionR, %tabwg, $tabwg_item, $curr
+ent_product, $gen_str);
my ($gen_intials, $gen_str, $gen_whog, $gen_whoa, $gen_whob, $gen_whoc
+, $pb_intials, $pa_intials, $pb2_intials, $j, $j_str);
$current_product = 'unset';
$tab_mw = MainWindow->new;
$tab_mw->Label(-text => 'Tabbed Frame to Check which is Raised')->grid
+(-row => 0);
$a_tbfr = $tab_mw->TabFrame
(
    -font =>'-adobe-times-medium-r-bold--14',
    -tabcurve =>4,
    -padx => 10,
    -pady => 10,
    -width => 400
);
$a_tbfr->grid ('-row' => 1);
for($j = 1; $j <= 30; $j ++) {

    $j_str = "Tab " . $j;

    $tabwg{$j_str} = $a_tbfr->Frame
    (
        -caption => $j_str,

    );

    $tabwg{$j_str}->Label(-text => "Text in Label in $j_str",
                      -width => 200)->grid(-row => 2, -column=>0);

}
foreach $tabwg_item (keys %tabwg) {

    print "item <$tabwg_item> wg <$tabwg{$tabwg_item}>\n";
}
print "\n";
MainLoop;
