Remarks

Implements
Gets or sets whether a preview of the dragged element is displayed during the drag.
See Also
Gets or sets the GraphSnapContext which is used to snap the dragged element during the drag.
Remarks
null (the default), this input mode tries to obtain the GraphSnapContext from the IInputModeContext. To explicitly disable snapping, a GraphSnapContext implementation that is disabled needs to be set.See Also
Gets the current snapped pointer position during drag operations.

Methods
Called to adjust the dropEffect accordingly.
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- evt - DragEventArgs
- The event args of the drag event to adjust the effects for.
Returns
- ↪boolean
trueif the drag event is handled by this input mode.
Defined in
Cleanly cancels this mode.
Implements
Cleanup method that calls cleanUpSnapContext, cleanUpPreview and cleanUpDropTarget.
Remarks
Cleans up the item preview.
See Also
Callback registered on the SnapContext that collects SnapResults for the dragged element.
Remarks
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- evt - CollectSnapResultsEventArgs

Creates an implementation of IInputModeContext that is specific to this mode.
Remarks
This is needed for events that are triggered by this InputMode to signalize where the event is coming from. A common usage for this is for example in isHit calls.
The result can be given to isHit or enumerateHits to let implementations of IHitTestable get access to the current IInputModeContext. This can be done by looking up IInputModeContext from the ICanvasContext's lookup method or simply downcasting.
