How to disable click of RibbonTab in WinForms using C#

[Abins]

I am using RadRibbonBar which have several Tabs. For one tab, instead of displaying the my group, I need to attach a action to execute. Currently, when I click on any tab, the highlighted area will be visible. But for the particular settings tab, I don't need to tdisplay this area. But I need to attach an action.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello, Abins, 

You can prevent the current tab from being changed but also detect when a specific tab is clicked. For this purpose you can handle the RadRibbonBar.CommandTabSelecting and cancel it when the clicked tab is the desired one Then, execute the desired logic. 

public RadForm1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radRibbonBar1.CommandTabSelecting+=radRibbonBar1_CommandTabSelecting;
}

private void radRibbonBar1_CommandTabSelecting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CommandTabSelectingEventArgs args)
{
    if (args.NewCommandTab== this.ribbonTab2)
    {
        args.Cancel = true;
        RadMessageBox.Show("Tab2 is clicked");
    }
}

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
