Contextual Tabs

Also known as Tool Tabs, these are additional tabs that will appear when you are working with specific objects.
These tabs provide all the necessary commands to manipulate, edit and format that particular object.
When visible these tabs work exactly the same as the other tabs and you can easily switch between them.
When the object is de-selected the tab will automatically disappear.
