How to programmatically set selected Panorama item in WP7

I’m not sure if you can programmatically force an animation to another PanoramaItem, but you can change the Panorama.DefaultItem.

So you might have 3 PanoramaItem‘s and on the OnNavigatedTo() handler, change the default item via:

panoramaControl.DefaultItem = panoramaControl.Items[indexToSet];

This should help when you recover from a tombstone.
