Tabs

Tabs let people switch between several panels of related content in the same place, showing one panel at a time.

What it is

Tabs group several panels of related content in one place and show one at a time. People pick a tab along the top to reveal its panel. Use tabs when the content divides into a small number of clearly-named sections that people won't need to read side by side — not to hide content people need to compare or read in sequence. See Tabs in the NSW Design System for the visual specification.

How to add it

Add a Tabs block, then build it up one tab at a time:

  1. Add a tab to create a new panel.
  2. Name the tab by typing its label straight onto the tab.
  3. Fill the panel by adding any blocks inside it — text, images, a link list, whatever the section needs.
Add a tab, then name it in place

Configure it

Tabs

Each tab is a panel with its own content. Add, remove and reorder tabs from the Tabs block; the first tab shows by default when the page loads.

Tab label

Each tab has a short label, edited in place on the tab itself. Keep labels to a word or two so the whole row fits on a phone.

Content style

The panel's border treatment: Bordered (the default) frames each panel; No border drops the bottom rule; Flush removes the panel padding; Side flush removes only the left and right padding, so full-width content meets the edges.

Tips

Keep to a handful of tabs with short, distinct labels. Too many tabs, or labels that wrap, make the row hard to scan on a small screen.

Don't hide content people need to read in order or compare side by side — tabs show one panel at a time. For that, use an accordion or plain sections instead.

Example

New and existing homes

As a first home buyer, you may be eligible for a transfer duty concession or exemption.

  • If your home is valued at less than $650,000, you can apply for a full exemption so that you don’t have to pay transfer duty.
  • If the value of your home is between $650,000 and $800,000, you can apply for a concessional rate of transfer duty. The amount you’ll have to pay will be based on the value of your home.

Vacant land

The FHBAS applies to vacant land on which you plan to build your home.

  • You won’t pay any transfer duty if your land is valued at less than $350,000.
  • For land valued between $350,000 and $450,000, you’ll receive a concessional rate.
