Raises the DropDownOpened event.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Protected Overridable Sub OnDropDownOpened ( _
    e As EventArgs _
)
protected virtual void OnDropDownOpened(
    EventArgs e
)

Parameters

Remarks

The OnDropDownOpened method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors

When overriding OnDropDownOpened in a derived class, make sure to call the base class’s OnDropDownOpened method so that registered delegates receive the event.
