How to switch what I see in Blend?

Very simple question.. I'm into learning Blend (way hard for developer..)

So. I'm editing TabControls template. Tabs have different templates. TopSelected, TopUnselected and so on.

enter image description here

I want to edit OverlappingTabUnSelected path but no matter what I click - I still see OverlappingTab in designer view. How do I switch from template to template? Even though I see proper item selected - actual design shows is from different templat. What am I doing wrong? I feel really stupid..

enter image description here

One more image showing that I'm selecting state: enter image description here

If a template has Visual States, you need to select the correct Visual State (Focused, Unfocused, Selected UnSelected) in order to edit the template.

Are you choosing the SelectionStates.Unselected State in the Visual State Manager (States) pane?

I could be wrong, but I believe that the order that the items occur in the list (from top to bottom) determines the order that they appear on the screen.

Have you tried selecting one of the items that you wish to change the visibility of and dragging it above (or below) another item?
