I am trying figure out how cancel this event in Silverlight, sadly I didn't find any useful link with the solution. (I saw some post for wpf which I think are not longer available for Silverlight)
Here is the bare bones of it:-
bool cancellingTabSelectionChange = false;
private void tabControl1_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.RemovedItems.Count > 0 && !cancellingTabSelectionChange)
{
cancellingTabSelectionChange = true;
((TabControl)sender).SelectedItem = e.RemovedItems[0];
cancellingTabSelectionChange = false;
}
}
You would need to add the extra criteria the would allow a change to take place since the above code would always block a change of tab.
