Hi,
I've just started to use your Neo Metro theme for Lightswitch and have noticed an issue with the TabLayout. It seems that any content within a TabLayout is centred regardless of the content items alignment settings.
I've tried this with a DataGrid and RowLayout (both with horizontal/vertical alignment set to stretch) but it looks like the tab is forcing the content to be centred. Also, if you try to align left,top etc... this is also ignored.
When I apply the Lightswitch standard theme, the content of the tab item is filled as expected.
I have have found the following post on the Microsoft LightSwitch Developer Centre which highlights the same issue and shows a screenshot. This post suggests that this isssue is also present in the Office theme.

Please can you let me know if you are planning a future release that will address this issue.
Many thanks,Matt Norton
Hello Matt,
Can you please tell us which version of our LightSwitch controls you use? 2011.1 or 2011.2?
Best regards,
Anatoli Iliev
I'm using 2011.2
Matt,
I cannot reproduce this issue using Infragistics LightSwitch Extensions version 2011.2.
We had this issue in our previous release 2011.1, but it was fixed in 2011.2. Here is how my sample using 2011.2 looks like:
Can you please attach a sample, so we can try to troubleshoot your issue?
Please see attached screenshot of the grid not filling the tab control.
Also you can see that the blue of the main screen tab is very light and almost ghosted compared to your screenshot and the darker blue of the tab control.
The actual version I'm using (from the Lightswitch Extensions tab) is 11.2.20112.1010.
I'm using the light download so could it be that the fix is in the main version but not the light version?
ThanksMatt
Could you also please confirm that there is an issue with the color of the main screen tabs. As you can see in my previous screenshot my tab is a very faded light blue instead of the darker blue in your screenshot.
Also, have you got an approximate date for a new release?
