HitInfo objects can be created by calling the dock panel’s DockPanel.GetHitInfo method. This method requires the test point as a parameter.

HitInfo class properties can be grouped into the logical categories listed below:

• the HitInfo.HitTest property identifying the type of element located under the test point.
