We are attempting to activate (focus) a RadPane by setting a bound IsActive property.

The set results in a InvalidOperationException, indicates IsActive is a read-only property.

The documentation seems to suggest this as a workable approach,
(bottom of http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/raddocking-panes-radpane.html)
but Object Browser indicates that IsActive has no public setter (we are using Q3 2013).

Should we be able to set IsActive and thereby cause a RadPane to become focused?

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,

The setter of the IsActive property is available with the Q3 2013 SP1 version of the controls (as stated in the article), so it is not present in the official Q3 2013 release. Please give it a try with any newer version (after the official Q3 2013) and it will work as expected.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response.

We have now upgraded to Q1 2014 (2014.1.224.1050).  The RadPane "IsActive" property is now writeable.  Thank you.

However, setting IsActive=true does not cause the RadPane to become the focused pane within its RadPaneGroup. 

Should I expect the pane to become focused by setting IsActive=true? 

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,

The recently activated Pane should be focused as demonstrated in the article you mentioned in the previous post. I'm attaching a sample project which demonstrates the example. However if you still observe some issue I will ask you to share more detailed information about the exact scenario and the steps to reproduce.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

We've found and corrected a separate coding error.  IsActive now functions as expected.

Thanks for your help,
Bob
