    solution was found in the docs.

    if someone looking for the answer –

    fabric.Canvas.setActiveObject(fabric.Object) ...
    

    how the solution was found:
    i understood that the wrong thinking was to look after the event that precedes the ‘object:selected’, but there is no such event !!! so i realized that all what i had to do is just look in the code for 'object:selected' and that’s how i found which method fires it … also it is well documented here, in docs .

    suggestion: would be great to note about it in the articles – next to getActiveObject / Group . currently it appears only here – http://fabricjs.com/customization/

    anyway, cangax and others participators – like very much your work !
    thanks
