Comments

The FocusHighlightStyle property defines the appearance of the focus rectangle on the active tab, displayed when the control has the input focus.

If the FocusHighlightStyle property is set to FocusHighlightStyleEnum.None, the user cannot distinguish a control with the input focus from one without the input focus. This is typically used for tab controls without client area, where the application shifts the input focus to another control when a tab is selected.
