We had a problem that with the RadGridView that occurred in with the 2009 Q3 build 1030 release. We downloaded the latest internal build (RadControls_for_Silverlight_2009_3_1426_Trial.zip) which did fix the problem but it introduced another problem with the RadTabControl.
We have a RadTabControl that looks like this:
<Controls:RadTabControl Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" ItemsSource="{Binding Workspaces}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedWorkspace, Mode=TwoWay}"
SelectedContentTemplateSelector="{StaticResource templateSelector}"
ContentTemplateSelector="{StaticResource templateSelector}">
<Controls:RadTabControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding DisplayName}" FontSize="12" FontWeight="Bold" Margin="5"/>
<Button Click="CloseWorkspace" Content="X" Cursor="Hand" IsTabStop="False" FontSize="8" Padding="0" Width="16" Height="16" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Controls:RadTabControl.ItemTemplate>
</Controls:RadTabControl>
The tab control uses a ContentTemplateSelector which is defined as :
The template selector is declared in App.xaml as:
<!-- Templates -->
<DataTemplate x:Key="manualDipReadTemplate">
<View:ManualDipReadView/>
</DataTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:Key="scheduledFillTemplate">
<View:ScheduledFillView/>
</DataTemplate>
<View:DynamicDataTemplateSelector x:Key="templateSelector"
ManualDipReadEntryTemplate="{StaticResource manualDipReadTemplate}"
ScheduledFillTemplate="{StaticResource scheduledFillTemplate}"/>
Although the DataContext for the tab control it appear to not use the ContentTemplateSelector until I click on the second tab item. Before that, the first tab just shows the string representation of the items in the Workspaces collection, and the selected tab is not highlighted, as it it could not figure out which tab was selected.
All this code works OK under build 1030, so this must have either been a bug introduced since that version or maybe the way the tab control works has changed?

I have tried some other options and it turns out that the ContentTemplate property no longer works for RadTabControl. The problem appears to be that the control on the tab does not get loaded until you have clicked on a different tab. Then the OnLoaded event occurs. This is definitely a bug in this internal build of the RadTabControl.
To use this build I will have to abandon using RadTabControl and try using the Silverlight System.Windows.Controls.TabControl.

Hi Geoff Hardy,
Yes, indeed this is a regression in the 14.26 build of the controls.
The issue was identified and now the TabControl works as before.
The official Q1 release is expected at the end of next week - of course in it the TabControl will not have this regression.
Hopefully this timing will fit into your schedule.
Kind regards,
Miroslav
