A GroupHighlightingProperties object that contains appearance settings used to highlight TileGroups within the current TileControl.

An end-user can re-arrange TileItems at runtime if the TileControl.AllowDrag property equals true. In this case, source and destination TileGroups can be highlighted depending on the TileControl.AllowGroupHighlighting property.

You can customize highlighting colors and their opacities via the AppearanceGroupHighlighting object:

  • the MaskColor property - specifies the origin group’s highlighting color (purple in the image below);
  • the HoveredMaskColor property - specifies the destination group’s highlighting color (orange in the image below);
  • the MaskOpacity and HoveredMaskOpacity properties - get or set the opacity for the MaskColor and HoveredMaskColor colors respectively.
