Bar Graph Click Listener Should Open a Tab

Question

Hi,
We have got a special requirement: Our application has 6 tabs. The first tab is the Dashboard. On Dashboard, we have few bar graphs. And each graph represents the current status of remaining 5 tabs.
And the requirement is, when the user clicks on any bar graph, respective tab should get opened. We easily achieved this when using a button/ Command Link/ Command Image Link as because they are supporting action event.
In case of bargraph, we are not getting this happened. Could you please let me know if there any way for us to achieve this requirement.
And FYI … here is the dashboard screen shot of our application. As per the below URL, when user clicks on the bar of Request bar graph, the Requests tab should get opened.

Here is the code snippet for the same:
public void alertsBarGraphListener(ClickEvent clickEvent) {
UIComponent uiComponent = clickEvent.getComponent();
if (uiComponent instanceof UIGraph ) {
String id = uiComponent.getId();
List<UIComponent> panelTabs = this.mainMenuTabs.getChildren();
boolean foundTab = false;
for(UIComponent tab: panelTabs) {
if(tab instanceof RichShowDetailItem) {
String[] triggerIds = ((RichShowDetailItem)tab).getPartialTriggers();
if(triggerIds !=null) {
for(String triggerid : triggerIds) {
if(id.equals(triggerid)) {
this.dashBoardDetailItem .setDisclosed(false);
((RichShowDetailItem)tab).setDisclosed(true);
foundTab = true;
Please let me know your comments.
Thanks & Regards,

After setting the disclosed property for the tabs, you would need to have PPR to the panelTab in order to reflect the changes in UI.
Here, is an sample based on your use-case:
TestPage.jspx:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"

<f:view>
<af:document id="d1">
<af:form id="f1">

*</af:showDetailItem>*
*</af:panelTabbed>*
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>
</jsp:root>
*TestPageBean.java:*
package view.bean;

import oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.layout.RichShowDetailItem;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.context.AdfFacesContext;
public class TestPageBean {
private RichPanelTabbed panelTab;
public TestPageBean() {
public void clickListener(ClickEvent clickEvent) {
List<UIComponent> showDetailItems = this.panelTab.getChildren();
for (UIComponent showDetailItem : showDetailItems) {
RichShowDetailItem currentRichShowDetailItem =
(RichShowDetailItem)showDetailItem;
currentRichShowDetailItem.setDisclosed(false);
if (currentRichShowDetailItem.getText().equals("Another Tab")) {
currentRichShowDetailItem.setDisclosed(true);
AdfFacesContext adfFacesContext = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
adfFacesContext.addPartialTarget(this.panelTab);
public void setPanelTab(RichPanelTabbed panelTab) {
this.panelTab = panelTab;
public RichPanelTabbed getPanelTab() {
return panelTab;
