Re: how to set pagination or add scroll bar to the TabBar of an TabPanel

... maybe you should try adding the content in a Panel and that panel
add it to another panel (HorizontalPanel maybe for both) and "hack"
the style of the last one adding overflow:hidden
TabPanel tp = new TabPanel();
tp.setWidth("500px"); // or whatever
Widget content = ... // the realcontent
HorizontalPanel hp1 = new HorizontalPanel();
hp1.setWidth("100%");
hp1.add(content);
HorizontalPanel hp2 = new HorizontalPanel();
hp2.setWidth("100%");
hp2.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("overflow","hidden");
tp.add("tab1",hp2);

the trick will be to find out when the inner panel has bigger width
than the outer panel(or the "deck" of the tabpanel) an then show the
buttons
and on the buttons onClick() you'll do something like hp2.getElement
().setScrollLeft(incremented/decremented value)

...
hope it will be any help

good luck
