# AX - Tabs

## Overview

**AX - Tabs** is an Experience Cloud component that organizes content into labeled tabs on Experience Sites pages, letting portal users switch between different sections without leaving the page.

Use it to organize related content that doesn't all need to be visible at once—like product details across multiple tabs, multi-section forms, categorized resources, or grouped information. Choose horizontal or vertical tab layouts and configure styling in Experience Builder.

Perfect for product information pages, multi-step forms, resource categories, account sections, or anywhere your portal needs to organize content into switchable views.

This component [leverages slots](/experience-cloud/getting-started/learning-the-basics.md#understanding-slots) for advanced customization, making it ideal for LWR sites. Aura sites do not support this level of customization.
{% endhint %}

## Configuration

### Properties

**Orientation** sets the layout of the tabs — horizontal or vertical — optimizing it for user navigation and content visibility.

**Scoped** enables scoped styling so styles are confined to the component, preventing unintended conflicts with other page elements.

**Scrollable** makes the tabs scrollable, and **Show Scroll Buttons** (with its mobile variant) manages the visibility of the scroll buttons, ensuring easy navigation even with a larger number of tabs.

**CMS Content Background Image** and **Content Background Image URL** customize the background of the tab content area by choosing an image from the CMS or providing a URL; **Content Overlay Color** applies a color overlay on top for readability.

**Data Source** defines the source of the tab labels and content, enabling manual configuration of tab properties such as labels, icons, and tooltips.
