Popup.StaysOpen Property

.NET Framework 4.5

Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the Popup control closes when the control is no longer in focus.

Namespace: System.Windows.Controls.Primitives
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
XMLNS for XAML: http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation, http://schemas.microsoft.com/netfx/2007/xaml/presentation

Syntax

C++

[BindableAttribute(true)]
public bool StaysOpen { get; set; }

XAML Attribute Usage

<object StaysOpen="bool" .../>

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the Popup control closes when IsOpen property is set to false; false if the Popup control closes when a mouse or keyboard event occurs outside the Popup control. The default is true.

Dependency Property Information

Identifier field	StaysOpenProperty
Metadata properties set to true	None

Remarks

When the StaysOpen property is set to true, Popup stays open until it is explicitly closed by setting the IsOpen property to false. When StaysOpen is false, the Popup control intercepts all mouse and keyboard events to determine when one of these events occurs outside the Popup control.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the StaysOpen property.

myTextBlockPopup.StaysOpen = true;

XAML

<DockPanel  Width="500" Background="Aqua">
  <Popup Placement="Center" PlacementRectangle="0,0,30,50"  
          IsOpen ="True" StaysOpen="True"
          PopupAnimation="Fade">
    <TextBlock Background="Purple">Popup Text</TextBlock>
  </Popup>
</DockPanel>
