Enabled Property (UIElement)

Indicates whether this UIElement is enabled or disabled.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property Enabled As Boolean

C#

public bool Enabled {get; set;}

Property Value

True when the current UIElement is enabled, otherwise False when it has been disabled.

Remarks

Setting the Enabled property on a UIElement that is composed of many child UIElements also cascades down and enables/disables the children for a consistent look-and-feel.

An enabled UIElement generally has a default or non-disabled style applied to it, and if it supports user interactivity then it will do so. Conversely, a disabled UIElement will have a disabled style applied and does not expose user interactivity.
