Remarks

The NavigatingCancelEventArgs object provides event arguments for the OnNavigatingFrom method on a Page or the Navigating event. The Navigating event is raised or the OnNavigatingFrom method is called just before navigating from a page.

You can prevent a navigation request by setting the Cancel property to true. To evaluate a navigation request, you can examine the values of the NavigationMode and Uri properties.

Examples

The following example shows how to override the OnNavigatingFrom method and use the NavigatingCancelEventArgs object to determine if a child window is displayed.

Partial Public Class About
    Inherits Page

    Public Sub New()
        InitializeComponent()
    End Sub

    Protected Overrides Sub OnNavigatingFrom(ByVal e As System.Windows.Navigation.NavigatingCancelEventArgs)
        If (e.Uri.ToString().Contains("/Home")) Then
            Dim surveyChildWindow As New SurveyWindow
            surveyChildWindow.Show()
        End If

        MyBase.OnNavigatingFrom(e)
    End Sub
End Class
public partial class About : Page
{
    public About()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }


    protected override void OnNavigatingFrom(NavigatingCancelEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Uri.ToString().Contains("/Home"))
        {
            SurveyWindow surveyChildWindow = new SurveyWindow();
            surveyChildWindow.Show();
        }
