Tabs title text is scrolling horizontally on pressing tab button inside the tab cotainer, it usually happens when tab title textlength is longer to fit inside the tab space. Supposet there are n number tabs whose combined horizontal space exceeds the screen's total width, the title text starts scrolling within the tab.

Please find the screen short attached to understand the problem more clearly.

Use Label.setDefaultTickerEnabled(false) to disable this globally.

Do you mean give different sizes to each tab?
Try defining the following theme constants:
tabsFillRowsBool=true
tabsGridBool=false

After defining those constants there is no change. I can not see the full text of tab name.

If you changed the style of the tabs make sure you set the same amount of padding/margin in unselected/selected & pressed.
