SidePanel.AllowSnap Property

Gets or sets whether or not borders of this SidePanel are allowed to snap to borders of other panels at runtime.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors

Assembly: DevExpress.Utils.v19.1.dll

Declaration

[DefaultValue(true)]
[DXCategory("Behavior")]
[SmartTagProperty("Allow Snap", "", SmartTagActionType.RefreshAfterExecute)]
public bool AllowSnap { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean **true**

true, if borders of this panel can snap to other panels’ borders; otherwise, false.

Remarks

When a user drags a border of a SidePanel, the panel snapping automatically sticks this border to a border of another panel when these borders are close to each other. This allows end-users to effortlessly align panels in a line. The animation below illustrates an example.

SidePanel - Snapping

The SidePanel.SnapThreshold property specifies how close an end-user must move a panel border to another border before the snapping feature will automatically adjust its position.
