Table of Contents

Allows placing a node in a different place in the UX tree than the location of this behavior, while keeping the data context from this behavior.

Example

<Panel ux:Class="MyPage">
    <Visual ux:Dependency="navBar" />
    <string ux:Property="Content" />
    <float4 ux:Property="Highlight" />
    <Text Alignment="Center" Value="{ReadProperty Content}" />
    <WhileActive>
        <AlternateRoot ParentNode="navBar">
            <Rectangle Color="{ReadProperty Highlight}" />
        </AlternateRoot>
    </WhileActive>
</Panel>

<ClientPanel>
    <Panel ux:Name="navBar" Dock="Top" Height="56" />
    <PageControl>
        <MyPage Content="Page 1" Highlight="#18f" navBar="navBar" />
        <MyPage Content="Page 2" Highlight="#1f8" navBar="navBar" />
    </PageControl>

Interface of AlternateRoot

Node : Node ux

The node that will be inserted into the ParentNode

ParentNode : Visual ux

The visual that will be the actual parent of the Visual.

PreserveContext : bool ux

Whether to preserve the data context from the AlternateRoot.

Visual : Node ux

Deprecated, for backwards compatibility. Use Node instead.

Inherited from Node

Bindings : IList of Binding ux

The list of bindings belonging to this node.

ContextParent : Node uno

The context parent is the semantic parent of this node. It is where non-UI structure should be resolved, like looking for the DataContext, a Navigation, or other semantic item.

FindNodeByName(Selector, Predicate<Node> (Node)) : Node uno

Finds the first node with a given name that satisfies the given acceptor. The serach algorithm works as follows: Nodes in the subtree are matched first, then it matches the nodes in the subtrees ofthe ancestor nodes by turn all the way to the root. If no matching node is found, the function returns null.

GetNearestAncestorOfType<T> : T uno

Insert(int, Binding) uno

IsRootingCompleted : bool uno

Whether rooting for this node is completed. Returns false if unrooting has started.

IsRootingStarted : bool uno

Whether rooting of this node has started. Note that even if this property returns true, rooting may not yet be completed for the node. See also IsRootingCompleted.
