FarPoint.Win Assembly > FarPoint.Win Namespace > ElementControl Class : Selectable Property


Glossary Item Box

Gets or sets whether the user can interact with the control.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Overridable Property Selectable As Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As ElementControl
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.Selectable = value
 
value = instance.Selectable
C# 
public virtual bool Selectable {get; set;}

Property Value

Boolean value: true if user can select items; false otherwise

Remarks

Set the Selectable property to specify whether users can interact with the control. For example, whether they can push a button or select an item.

This property is available at run time only.

Contrast this property with the CanFocus property and the Enabled property. Use the CanFocus property to specify whether a control can receive the focus. Use the Enabled property to specify whether the control looks grayed and users can interact with it.

Example

C#Copy Code
control.Picture = Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath + "\\smokes.bmp");
control.PictureMargin = 34;
control.MarginTop = 3;
control.MarginBottom = 3;
control.MarginLeft = 3;
control.MarginRight = 3;
control.PictureOrientation = FarPoint.Win.PictureOrientation.PictureRotate180;
control.AlignText = FarPoint.Win.TextAlign.TextLeftPictRight;
control.AlignHorz = FarPoint.Win.HorizontalAlignment.Left;
control.BackColor = Color.Red;
control.Text = "NO SMOKING";
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Turn off the No Smoking sign
control.Visible = true;
control.Enabled = false;
control.Selectable = false;
control.CanFocus = false;
