programmatically select an item in explorerBar
posted

I don't understand why nobody is responding to this.  Do you need more information?

This seems like this should be a simple thing to do and should have a simple solution.  If this control does not have a simple way to programmatically select it's list objects then it needs one.  Can I at least get feedback that says you don't know how to do this so that I can move on?

I try this:
_explorerBar.ActiveItem = _explorerBar.Groups[0].Items[0];

but get this Exception:
"ActiveItem cannot be set - specified Item cannot be activated! (Item may be disabled or have a style that is not activatable like Separator or Label)"

_explorerBar.Groups[0].Items[0] is this:
UltraExplorerBarItem item = new UltraExplorerBarItem(sectionId.ToString());
item.Text = sectionText;
_explorerBar.Groups[0].Items.Add(item);

 

What am I missing?
