    Selectable Property (ElementControl)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets whether the user can interact with the control.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Overridable Property Selectable As Boolean
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As ElementControl
    Dim value As Boolean
     
    instance.Selectable = value
     
    value = instance.Selectable
    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
    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;
    }
    
    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.MarginTop = 3
    control.MarginBottom = 3
    control.AlignText = FarPoint.Win.TextAlign.TextLeftPictRight
    control.AlignHorz = FarPoint.Win.HorizontalAlignment.Left
    control.BackColor = Color.Red
    control.Text = "NO SMOKING"
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    'Turn off the No Smoking sign
    control.Visible = True
    control.Enabled = False
    control.Selectable = False
    control.CanFocus = False
    End Sub
