Property Value

Type Default Description
DefaultBoolean **Default**

A DefaultBoolean enumeration value that specifies whether or not this BaseView uses snapping emulation for its child documents.

Available values:

Name Description
True

Corresponds to a Boolean value of true.

False

Corresponds to a Boolean value of false.

Default

The value is determined by the current object’s parent object setting (e.g., a control setting).

Remarks

In Windows 7 and newer Microsoft operating systems, dragging a form to a screen edge displays a semi-transparent layer that allows you to dock the form to this edge and preview its position. This feature requires visible form borders to work properly. Application UI Manager‘s documents are implemented as borderless forms, so window snapping is not supported by default. Set the UseSnappingEmulation property to DefaultBoolean.True to turn on snapping emulation that fully imitates default Windows snapping.
