Bob said it was the text that was affected and it's an inherited property. The foreground color is the unselected tab text color, and the background color is the selected tab text color. I set the colors on the card and the text of the tabs appears with those colors.

The tab backgrounds appear to be set by the OS and on Mac they are blue.

You mean from, say,  the card? How would it know to set one or more colors in 
each tab?

It may be inheriting colors from the owner.

No I mean that with no foreground or background color set, the hilited tab
background is blue and the text of the first tab is green when selected,
and the other tabs the text is yellow when selected. Again, it's no big
deal it just seems odd.

Hi.
If you set the foregroundColor to, say, red, and the backgroundColor to,
say, yellow, the text of the tabs will show one or the other as each tab is
"selected".
Is this what you are seeing? Or did you mean that the entirety of the tab
is colored? For me, each tab, when selected, is blue.
