I am using RStudio v0.99.473 and Shiny v0.13.0. On my page I have a tabsetPanel within a fluidRow, with multiple tabs on it. I am able to use the optional position="below" to move the position of the tabs from the top to the bottom of the fluidRow. However, when I set the position to either "left" or "right", the tabs remain at the top of the page. I have tried entering type="tabs" to ensure that it is not of type "pills", but this does not make any difference. Can someone explain to me why this is not working.

The following code works:

tabsetPanel(position = "below",
  tabPanel("Plot), 
  tabPanel("Summary"), 
  tabPanel("Table")
)

This code does not, tabs remain at default position, above.

tabsetPanel(position = "right",
  tabPanel("Plot"), 
  tabPanel("Summary"), 
  tabPanel("Table")
)

Yes, this is unfortunate. Bootstrap 3 has removed the ability to position tabs anywhere but "above" (a lot of other people have complained about this). See this stackoverflow post for ideas of getting around this using css. Because of this, we're about to deprecate the position argument to tabsetPanel() in Shiny. Sorry :(
