What is a contextual tab?
A contextual tab is a hidden tab control in the Office ribbon that is displayed in the tab row when a specified event occurs in the Office document. For example, the Table Design tab that appears on the Excel ribbon when a table is selected.
How do you use contextual tabs?
The contextual tabs give you the options and tools you need to work with these objects and then when you click out of the object the tools are tidied away. To get them back, you click on the object, and the tab appears again. It keeps your working space uncluttered.
Why is it called a contextual tab?
Contextual tabs are special types of tabs that appear only when a particular object is selected, such as a chart or a shape. These contextual tabs contain commands specific to whatever object you are currently working on. For example, after you add a shape to a spreadsheet, a new Format tab appears.
What is a contextual tab in access?
The contextual command tabs contain commands and features that you need to work in a specific context. For example, when you open a table in Design view, the contextual tabs contain commands that apply only when you are working with a table in that view.
