How to change Visualforce Tab Visibility

Here is an excerpt from the "Creating Visualforce Tabs" help page:

 

"10. Choose the user profiles for which the new custom tab will be available:
    - Select Apply one tab visibility to all profiles and choose Default On, Default Off, or Tab Hidden from the drop-down list.
    - Alternatively, select Apply a different tab visibility for each profile and choose Default On, Default Off, or Tab Hidden from the drop-down list for each profile."

 

The above instructions determine the initial custom Visualforce tab visibility settings.  Once this Visualforce Tab is created, how can the tab visibility settings be modified?

 

I have a managed package, and a client would like to modify the settings for a Visualforce Tab based on their requirements.

This tab visibility is set in the users profiles.  If you look under the Custom Tab section of the profile, you will see both custom objects and VF Tabs listed.  Set the visibility there.

Thanks Jim!  That did the trick.  I went to Administration Setup -> Manage Users -> Profiles -> Edit, and the necessary tab setup is under Tab Settings.  Thanks again!
