Double Click on TextBox not selecting after clicking a BarItem

When I create a MainFrameBarManager with a BarItem and I click on it.
I can't select text in a readonly TextBox by double clicking if it is placed in a GroupBox.
Another TextBox that is not in the GroupBox works like it should.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong or how I can prevent this behaviour, without changing every TextBox's HideSelection property?

I attached a windows forms application of the problem I'm having.

Thanks in advance

Hi Yazid, 
 
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion Support. 
 
We have prepared a sample to achieve your requirement. In this sample, we have set the focus to TextBox when MouseDown. The sample and video can be downloaded from the below link.

Hi Venkateshwaran,Thanks for the answer, but it is not the correct solution to my problem. With this solution I have to add the focus event (which I should not have to do myself) on each TextBox in groupbox.I want to prevent this behavior, not fix it, so that TextBoxes inside and outside GroupBoxes can be selected as if I have never clicked on the BarItem.Is there a solution to change properties to get the desired result?
