Try set StaysOpenOnClick to True, by default it is False:

<telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="radMenuHome"
                     Header="Menu"
                     StaysOpenOnClick="True" ...>

I tried `StaysOpenOnClick`, but even though the menu gets `hidden` after clicking on it. I am getting a popup dialog after clicking on a menu, but the menu is hidden immediately after clicking on it.Thanks. – Earth Mar 24 '14 at 06:08

Try with this :

You should better use RadTabStrip control.
The RadMenu does not support expand/collapse functionality you are looking for. You can prevent collapsing of the item through OnClientItemClosing event , but you cannot detect the opened items and then collapse them.
You can try to hack the menu by using get_openedItem() client side function and then check the item level by get_level();
If the hovered item is level one and it is currently opened you can call .close() function that should collapse it.

As for the selected items you can use the specific css file selectors : refer the link below

The question is about `WPF` and not related with `ASP.Net Ajax`. Thanks. — Earth, Mar 31 '14 at 05:45
