I made the following code to implement this:

e.SelectedTabChanged += (obj, ev) =>
            {
                foreach(RadTabbedFormControlTab tab in e.Tabs)
                {
                    tab.Item.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 255, 255, 255);
                    tab.Item.BorderColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 255, 255, 255);
                    tab.Item.ShadowColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 255, 255, 255);
                }
                e.SelectedTab.Item.BackColor = Color.White;
                e.SelectedTab.Item.BorderColor = Color.White;
                e.SelectedTab.Item.ShadowColor = Color.White;
            };

 

It is right? Or is there another way to change the colors of the tabs when they become active?

Hello, Serg,

According to the provided code snippet, it is not clear which is the event that you handle to color the tabs. It seems that you would like to change the color of the selected/active tab in RadTabbedForm. If you do so, I can suggest overriding the theme settings at run time by using the SetThemeValueOverride method and override the "Selected" state. 

foreach (RadTabbedFormControlTab tab in radTabbedFormControl1.Tabs)
{
    tab.Item.SetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Color.Green, "Selected");
}

More information you can find here: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/telerik-presentation-framework/override-theme-settings-at-run-time

I hope this helps. Should you have further questions do not hesitate to ask.

Regards,
Nadya
