Tab strips  

Tab strips allow you to easily and comprehensively define different object components of an application on one screen and to navigate between them. In contrast to the classical screen change, the user at one glance sees all destinations he or she must call to accomplish the given task. Using this technique, the user can comprehend the structure of an application more intuitively as with conventional techniques such as the Goto menu. This reduces the learning expense and facilitates the usage.
