Use the GetTabItem method to obtain a tab item, when tab control’s data items are not the DXTabItem type. This happens when the tab control is bound to a data source, or when its Items collection has been manually filled with arbitrary objects. In this instance, the GetTabItem method returns a DXTabItem object obtained from the specified data item, using the template specified by the ItemTemplate property.
To obtain a tab item by its index, use another overload of the GetTabItem method that takes the index parameter.
