DrawerWindow custom control

WPF custom control built entirely in C# with WPFX.

DrawerWindow

Custom window control with a side drawer, based on the standard WPF Window.

Properties

  • Content (object), inherited from Window
  • DrawerContent (object)
  • DrawerSide (DrawerSide), Default: DrawerSide.Right
  • DrawerLength (double), Default: 400
  • DrawerBackground (Brush), Default: Brushes.LightGray
  • IsDrawerVisible (bool)
  • IsDrawerPinned (bool)
  • IsDrawerClosed (bool)
Notes

If a Button is used to open the drawer (see example app below), IsDrawerClosed is useful for binding to Button.IsEnabledProperty to act as a 'gate' to prevent repeat-setting the state IsDrawerVisible=true during the drawer open animation.

When the drawer is open, clicking on any part of the DrawerWindow client area that is not part of the drawer surface, will close the drawer.

Example demo app
