Remarks
The QueryPath event occurs in the following cases:
- A user types or pastes a path into the path edit box.
- A user selects a path in the MRU drop-down.
- You change the BreadcrumbControl.SelectedItemPath property.
Handle the QueryPath event to parse the user input and return a set of the selected breadcrumb items.
The event arguments expose the BreadcrumbQueryPathEventArgs.Path property that returns a set of strings separated by a path separator.
Use the BreadcrumbQueryPathEventArgs.Breadcrumbs property to populate a breadcrumb control with a set of selected nodes that corresponds to the path entered by a user.
