Layout Groups vs Tabbed group
Hello,
We have used the Tabbed Group with an added dynamic container, this will enable the user to open and work on multiple cases at the same time, but Pega has deprecated the Tabbed Groups and suggesting to use Layout Groups. The problem is we are not able to embed a dynamic container inside a Layout Group. How can we achieve the desired configuration of being able to open multiple tabs with Layout Groups and Dynamic Container.
Many Thanks,

The thread ultimately is talking about using tabbed groups itself, which we are doing now, but looks like there is no way we can do this with Layout Groups.

Beginning with Pega 7.3, tab groups have been replaced with layout groups, which offer better performance and flexibility. Tab groups are based on the Yahoo User Interface (YUI) library, which is no longer supported on the Pega 7 Platform.
User interface rule forms now use layout groups instead of tab groups to place layouts in forms.

Hi @PradeepG0495,
As mentioned earlier, tab group is deprecated from 7.3.
The below 7.3 help link describes that we need to add a dynamic container to a tab group.

The below post also deals with the same question of how to make use of dynamic container when tabs are in picture.

There is a article where it also suggests to utilize pzStudioContainerTabs to get the tab group in 8.x versions as we do not have them in the layout palette.

Hope this helps!
