Hello,

 We have a tabstrip control that is already initialized and we are referencing that using : $("#tabstrip").data("kendoTabStrip"). We would like to perform multiple selects on different tabs one after the other:

 Here is the Dojo for that.

http://dojo.telerik.com/iJOGe/24

If we set the animation to false, it works but since the tabstrip is already initialized we would like to perform a second select after the animation is completed or remove the animation from the tabstrip component completely. We do not intend to use a timeout. Is there a way we can achieve this?

Hello Iram,

I am not sure that I understand the use case for selecting different tabs in such manner, but the easiest way for achieving this would be by disabling the animation:

However, if you want to keep the animation and change the selected tab after the previous one is selected, you should handle the activate event, but  with some custom logic for preventing the logic to be executed on each tab change:

Hope this helps.

Hello @Konstantin Dikov,

 Thanks for the answer, however I do not want to reinitialize the TabStrip control as I do not have control over the initializing of the tabStrip control, its already done server-side. All I can do now is get a reference to that control and manipulate it client side. Is there a way I can achieve the animation: false and selection of the second tab using a control that has already been initialized? Kindly let me know.

 

Cheers.

Hi Iram,

Can you please elaborate why you need to disable the animation on client-side and not when you initialize the control in the first place?

Currently, the only thing that I could suggest without re-initialization of the widget would be to try the following:
