On the client side, I'm having trouble retreiving the index from one rotator to assign it to another. I'm clicking on a rotator item to load it in another rotator. I've tried a few things but have been unsuccessful so far. Here's what I've tried:
 
function itemOnClick_handler(sender, args) {   
$find('<%= ActiveSlide.ClientID %>').InitialItemIndex = args.get_item().get_index();   
$find('<%= ActiveSlide.ClientID %>').InitialItemIndex = sender.CurrentItemIndex();   
$find('<%= ActiveSlide.ClientID %>').InitialItemIndex = sender.get_item().get_index();   
$find('<%= ActiveSlide.ClientID %>').InitialItemIndex = args.get_item().CurrentItemIndex();   
}  
 
Are any of the above close? Here's my rotator:  
   
<telerik:RadRotator ID="ThumbRotator" runat="server" RotatorType="FromCode" Width="628" Height="118px" ItemHeight="118" ItemWidth="157" ScrollDuration="500" FrameDuration="3000" ScrollDirection="Left" PauseOnMouseOver="false" 

OnClientItemShowing

 

="itemShowing_handler" OnClientItemClicked="itemOnClick_handler"

>  

<ItemTemplate>   
    <div class="itemTemplate">  
        <asp:Label ID="hlnkThumbTitle" runat="server" Font-Names="Arial" Font-Size="XX-Small" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "thumbTitle") %>'></asp:Label> 
        <br /> 
        <img src=
'<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "thumbImage") %>' alt='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "thumbTitle") %>' class="RotatorImage" width="85px" height="60" />  
    </div>   
</ItemTemplate>   
<ControlButtons LeftButtonID="img_left" RightButtonID="img_right" />   
<SlideShowAnimation Type="Fade"></SlideShowAnimation>   
</telerik:RadRotator>

Hello Randy,

The current RadRotator's version doesn't allow to set RadRotator's initialItemIndex property on the client. The only one way to achieve your goal is to set InitialItemIndex on the server via AJAX.
You can find a simple source code which illustrates the fore-mentioned technique in the following KB article:
http://www.telerik.com/community/code-library/aspnet-ajax/rotator/jump-to-frame.aspx
Let us know if you have any other questions.
