Occurs when the mouse (or the stylus) leaves the bounding area of a UIElement.
(in System.Windows.dll)
'Usage
Dim instance As UIElement
Dim handler As MouseEventHandler
AddHandler instance.MouseLeave, handler
'Declaration
Public Event MouseLeave As MouseEventHandler
<uiElement MouseLeave="eventhandler"/>
The MouseLeave event can be defined for any UIElement-derived class, such as Canvas, TextBlock, or Rectangle.
The MouseLeave event is raised in response to the mouse (or the stylus) leaving the object's bounding area.
You can define multiple MouseLeave events for objects in XAML content. However, if a child object and its parent object both define a MouseLeave event, the parent object's MouseLeave event occurs before the child object's MouseLeave event. This is not a case of a bubbling event; it indicates only that the mouse (or the stylus) has entered both objects, potentially at different times depending on the object layout and composition of the visual tree.
Unlike the MouseEnter event, the MouseLeave event does not provide the mouse (or the stylus) position in event data, because the position of the mouse pointer relative to the object is unknown when it is out of bounds. Because it is always nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), you generally should not use the event data from your MouseLeave event handler, although you may still be interested in the sender parameter.
MouseLeave and OnMouseLeave
Controls that inherit MouseLeave can provide special handling for the event, by overriding the OnMouseLeave method. OnMouseLeave can be useful either for setting visual state, or for public or internal state properties. For instance, Slider implements OnMouseLeave in order to check the Thumb element's value for IsDragging (which cancels a particular behavior mode), and also to set visual state. For more information, see OnMouseLeave.
