Hi I just want to ask some help. I have an ongoing development project and has telerik tab. It is displaying multiple templates. What I need to do is to append a '*' when there are changes to be saved and make it disappear when it is saved. This is more likely on Microsoft Visual Studio. When we had changes on a certain (.cs) file, there is an '*' appearing and disappears after saving. This is exactly what i should do on my task. I hope someone could help me with this ! Thanks alot!..

First off, you need a method to detect whether changes have been made to the contents of the tab, and then you just need to change the title from "Tab1" to "Tab1*".

Take a look at these links below. it's a close button but you can follow the same principle with the '*'.

Hi i think this is different. It's only for the closing of tabs. I am talking about the * when there are changes.Example of this scenario is on microsoft visual studio where there is * appearing when there are changes.
