The incorrect tab layout may be due to the long title of the custom tab I added.

I see what is happening.  I am investigating the problem.

This bug has been lurking for a while - about two years to be more accurate.  The fix will be available in the next update.

Description of the Bug:
When a dialog is about to be displayed, Windows computes the width of each tab to determine if they should appear on a single row or multiple rows.  GenoPro was supplying the text "Custom Tag" for computing the tab layout.  As a result, a long text was not considered in the layout, and therefore the layout was often on a single row instead of two rows.  This fix is not perfect because GenoPro uses Unicode and the dialog captions are non-Unicode because of the MFC framework.  This fix should work 99.9% of the case.  In the case of the 0.1% not working, just change the name of your dialog layout to something shorter or longer.

Eventually GenoPro will rewrite its own library to remove any references to MFC stuff.
