I'd like to show the text of the tabs horizontally (it's easier to read) even when the tabs are on the left/right.
All suggestions I can find online describe workarounds for the delphi's component, but the lazarus' one doesn't implement OwnerDraw (there's no DrawTab event to override).
I tried some components that show the text horizontally (TECTabCtrl and TATTabs) but they're not a replacement for TPageControl (they implement TTabControl functionality).
Besides, they don't match the style of the TPageControl (I'm currently using a main TPageControl and each page is in turn a TPageControl).

Any suggestion?
