UIElement..::.IsHitTestVisible Property

Gets or sets a value that declares whether this element can possibly be returned as a hit test result from some portion of its rendered content. This is a dependency property.

Namespace:  System.Windows
Assembly:  PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)

Syntax

'Usage

Dim instance As UIElement
Dim value As Boolean

value = instance.IsHitTestVisible

instance.IsHitTestVisible = value

'Declaration

Public Property IsHitTestVisible As Boolean
<object IsHitTestVisible="bool" .../>

Property Value

Type: System..::.Boolean
true if this element could be returned as a hit test result from at least one point; otherwise, false. The default value is true.
Dependency Property Information

Identifier field

IsHitTestVisibleProperty

Metadata properties set to true

None

Remarks

The effective value of this property is influenced by the relative positions of hit testable elements in the logical tree. For instance, if an element is a child element of an element that is not hit test visible, the effective value of the property on the child will remain false, even if attempting to set that value locally. For this reason, it is important that you do not set IsHitTestVisible to false on a composited control unless you do not want any input or hit testing on that control. For more information on hit testing, see Hit Testing in the Visual Layer.
