Feature Description

The new Material component updates changed how tabs present when used. Tabs now stretch to fill the header.

For those of us who wish to preserve the old behaviour, adding the stretchTabs settings to MatTabsConfig will be incredibly helpful to let us set the behaviour universally instead of updating each and every instance.

Please see PR #26644

Use Case

This will allow developers to globally set stretchTabs to false for all instances of mat-tab-group in an application via providers.

Ex:

providers: [
  {
    provide: MAT_TABS_CONFIG,
    useValue: {
      stretchTabs: false,
    },
  },
]
