PaneDragOverEventArgs Class

Event arguments for the PaneDragOver event

Public Class PaneDragOverEventArgs

public class PaneDragOverEventArgs : System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs
Example
This sample demonstrates using the PaneDragOver event to determine whether a drag action is considered valid. The sample code assumes you have a XamDockManager with a similar configuration to what is demonstrated in the xaml snippet.

For an overview of how to handle events in Visual Basic or Visual C#, see Event Handlers in Visual Basic and Visual C#. For specific information and code examples illustrating how to consume events in your application, see Consuming Events in the .NET Framework Developer's Guide.
