Property Value

Type	Description
DevExpress.UI.Xaml.Ribbon.IBackstageTabItem	The currently selected DevExpress.UI.Xaml.Ribbon.IBackstageTabItem.

Remarks

The SelectedTab allows you to define which tab is currently selected. One of the tabs within the BackstageView is always selected. This item’s contents (BackstageTabItem.ControlPane) are displayed in the BackstageView‘s right area. Selecting a tab item fires the RibbonControlBase.SelectedTabChanged event and sets the item’s RibbonTabBase.IsSelected property to true.

To specify a tab that is selected by default when the BackstageView is opened by the end-user, use the BackstageView.SelectedTabOnShow or BackstageView.SelectedTabIndexOnShow property.
