The following image shows a TabbedViewNavigator with three sections: Employees, Contacts, and Search:
The TabbedViewNavigatorApplication container automatically creates
a single TabbedViewNavigator container for the entire application.
You can reference the TabbedViewNavigator object by using the navigator
property of the TabbedViewNavigatorApplication container.
The active or selected navigator can be changed by clicking the corresponding
tab in the TabBar or by changing the selectedIndex property of
the component.
The contents of a child view navigator is destroyed when it is deactivate, and dynamically created when activated.

Each view navigator is represented as a tab in the tab bar
of this TabbedViewNavigator.
Only one view navigator can be active at a time.
You can reference the active view navigator by using
the selectedNavigator property.

If items at a lower index than selectedIndex are
removed from the component, the selected index is adjusted downward
accordingly.
If the selected item is removed, the selected index is set to:
selectedIndex - 1 if there is at least one item. The default value is -1.
