How to show the tab containers hover menu and still be able to maximize

When using the tab container with many tabs, Qlik automatically shows the left and right arrows to navigate the tabs. When the tab containers has the "Show hover menu" enabled, the hover menu interferes with the right arrow, making it impossible to use the arrow to navigate.

Is there a walkaround or fix to this issue?

Diabling the hover menu is not an option, as we need to be able to maximize the objects.

Not sure but give a try 

Add a dummy empty tab at the far right with a short name like:

 

"→" 

or

"More"

or

 

" "

Hello 

Instead of using arrow button which is provided by tab container by default, You can also use setting button which is available on left of the tab container. 

You will get this option in Appearance, then click on the Menu

True. But still does not solve the issue for users not using this menu unfortunately.
