Remarks

This property is in effect in the LinkSelectionModeType.OneInGroupAndAllowAutoSelect mode that can be enabled via the NavBarControl.LinkSelectionMode property.

In the Navigation Pane and the Side Bar Views only one group of the NavBarControl is active at one time. On group activation, if the group being activated does not contain a selected link, the first link in this group is auto-selected (assigned to the NavBarControl.SelectedLink property). You can disable auto-selection for all links of the current NavBarItem by setting the AllowAutoSelect property to false.

You can override the current setting for particular links using the NavBarItemLink.AllowAutoSelect property.
