WPF Tab Control: How do I get the currently selected tab?

TabControl.SelectedItem is the selected tab.

cast it to a TabItem to get the properties.

What I mostly do is bind it to a viewmodel.

you can use the TabControl.SelectedItem property, it will get you the selected TabItem

Sample shown below

TabItem ti = Tabs1.SelectedItem as TabItem;MessageBox.Show("This is " + ti.Header + " tab");

wpf themes styles c-sharp-3.0

TabControl.SelectedIndex gets you the currently selected tab index in version 3.0 and later of the .NET Framework.
