WPF, C# - change selected tab by doubleclick on a datagrid's row

I have a datagrid which is in a tabcontrol item. When i doubleclick the row in the datagrid, i want the tabcontrol to change the tab.

Heres my code:

<TabItem
            x:Name="tiDashboard"
            Header="Dashboard"
            Background="White">

            <Grid>
                    <DataGrid
                            IsReadOnly="True"
                            x:Name="dgAnzeigeWerk"
                            AutoGenerateColumns="false"
                            Margin="0,10,0,249" 
                            HeadersVisibility="Column"
                            RowHeight="25" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="492">

                        <DataGrid.Resources>
                            <Style TargetType="{x:Type DataGridRow}">
                                <EventSetter Event="Control.MouseDoubleClick" Handler="dgAnzeigeWerk_Row_DoubleClick"/>
                            </Style>
                        </DataGrid.Resources>

                        <DataGrid.Columns>
                            <DataGridTextColumn Width="auto" Header="Nummer" Binding="{Binding Kostenstellennummer}"/>
                            <DataGridTextColumn Width="auto" Header="Kostenstelle" Binding="{Binding Kostenstelle}"/>
                            <DataGridTextColumn Width="*" Header="Kosten" Binding="{Binding Kosten}"/>
                        </DataGrid.Columns>

                    </DataGrid>
                    <ComboBox x:Name="cbYearWerk" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="25" Margin="497,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="98" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" SelectionChanged="cbYearWerk_SelectionChanged"/>
                    <Separator Height="15" Margin="0,-10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>

                </Grid>
            </Grid>
        </TabItem>
...

To change the tabitem i use this code:

private void dgAnzeigeWerk_Row_DoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
    {

        tabControl.SelectedItem = tiUebersicht;
    }

But the tab won't change. I tried to do the same code with a button and it worked. I also tried tabControl.SelectedIndex = 2 or tiUebersicht.IsSelected = true but without success.

Any suggestions?

Add e.Handled = true; to your handler at the end. 

private void dgAnzeigeWerk_Row_DoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
    {
        tabControl.SelectedItem = tiUebersicht;
        e.Handled = true;
    }

Actually selection is changing but its happening very fast and focus is returning back to the one containing DataGrid. This can be verified using SelectionChanged event of TabControl.

Try using Dispatcher inside of event.

Link to similar question

Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(() => tiUebersicht.IsSelected = true);
Dispatcher.Invoke(() => tiUebersicht.IsSelected = true);
Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(() => tabControl.SelectedItem = tiUebersicht);
Dispatcher.Invoke(() => tabControl.SelectedItem = tiUebersicht);
