Move away from RadRibbonBackstageItem when clicking on a button in a MRU list

[Martin]

Hello there

I am using the Office_BlueTheme and I am using the new RadRibbonBackstageItem.

I want to move away from the BackstageItem when I click on a MRU item. Basically I want the same behavior as when IsSelectable="False" 

Is there a way to manual switch to the default tab?

This is my MRU template:

<telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem Header="Recent" IsDefault="True">
                 <Grid>
                     <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                         <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                         <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
                         <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                     </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                     <StackPanel Margin="15 15 0 0">
                         <TextBlock Margin="0 0 0 2" FontSize="14" FontWeight="Bold" Text="Recent Documents" />
                         <Rectangle Height="1">
                             <Rectangle.Fill>
                                 <LinearGradientBrush MappingMode="Absolute" SpreadMethod="Repeat"
                                     StartPoint="0,0.5" EndPoint="4,0.5">
                                     <GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#40000000" />
                                     <GradientStop Offset="0.5" Color="#40000000" />
                                     <GradientStop Offset="0.501" Color="Transparent" />
                                 </LinearGradientBrush>
                             </Rectangle.Fill>
                         </Rectangle>
                         <ItemsControl Margin="0 4 0 0">
                             <ListView ItemsSource="{Binding Path=MruList}" SelectionMode="Single" BorderThickness="0">
                                 <ListView.ItemTemplate>
                                     <DataTemplate>
                                         <telerik:RadRibbonButton Content="{Binding Name}"
                                                                  Command="{Binding DataContext.OpenFromMruCommand,
                                                                            RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=ItemsControl}}"
                                                                  CommandParameter="{Binding}"
                                                                  HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"/>
                                     </DataTemplate>
                                 </ListView.ItemTemplate>
                             </ListView>
                         </ItemsControl>
                     </StackPanel>
                 </Grid>
             </telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem>

Hello Martin,

The RadRibbonView have a boolean property IsBackstageOpen and you can use it to acomplish your scenario. You could bind to the IsBackstageOpen property in your view model and change its value when the command triggered by your button is executed. The RadRibbonView have built-in logic to select the last selected RibbonTab once the RadRibbonBackstage is closed.

I hope this information helps.
