Declaration
Event Data
The DockItemRestoring event's data class is ItemCancelEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Cancel | Gets or sets whether the current operation must be canceled. |
| Handled | Gets or sets a value that indicates the present state of the event handling for a routed event as it travels the route. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
| Item | Gets the currently processed item. Inherited from ItemEventArgs. |
| OriginalSource | Gets the original reporting source as determined by pure hit testing, before any possible Source adjustment by a parent class. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
| RoutedEvent | Gets or sets the RoutedEvent associated with this RoutedEventArgs instance. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
| Source | Gets or sets a reference to the object that raised the event. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
The event data class exposes the following methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| InvokeEventHandler(Delegate, Object) | When overridden in a derived class, provides a way to invoke event handlers in a type-specific way, which can increase efficiency over the base implementation. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
| OnSetSource(Object) | When overridden in a derived class, provides a notification callback entry point whenever the value of the Source property of an instance changes. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
Remarks
To prevent a dock item from being restored, set the event’s Cancel parameter to true. An alternative way to disable this functionality is to set the BaseLayoutItem.AllowRestore option to false. After an item has been restored, the DockLayoutManager.DockItemRestored event fires.
Closed (hidden) items can be accessed via the DockLayoutManager.ClosedPanels collection.
