Remarks

UIElement is a base element: it's a class that many other Windows Runtime classes inherit from in order to support the XAML UI element model. Properties, methods and events that UIElement defines are inherited by hundreds of other Windows Runtime classes.

Although UIElement defines the events for focus reporting (GotFocus, LostFocus), UIElement does not define an API for programmatically setting the focus. This capability is defined by the Control class.

UIElement does not expose a public constructor. Typically, you don't derive classes from either UIElement or FrameworkElement directly. More typically used base classes for derived custom classes are these classes:

The UIElement class is used as the type parameter of many properties and methods in the Windows Runtime API. For example, the Child property of Border takes a single UIElement, which represents the element that the Border is drawn around. You can provide any UIElement-derived element for such a property, including custom controls that you define.

The UIElementCollection class provides a strongly typed collection of UIElement items. UIElementCollection is used as a type for properties of objects that contain several child elements, for example for the Children property of any Panel class.

UIElement API and features

UIElement extends DependencyObject, which is another base element, and adds support for various Windows Runtime feature areas.

Input, and events for responding to user interaction

Much of the input behavior for visible elements in a UI is defined in the UIElement class. This includes the events for keyboard, mouse, touch, drag-drop, and focus interactions. For more info, see Handle pointer input, Keyboard interactions, and Custom user interactions.

Prominent API of UIElement that support input and user interaction:

Gestures and manipulations

Gestures and manipulations are also a way to handle input and user interaction. The API are listed out separately here because these events represent how the system interacts with device-level input actions and interprets them as a user interaction. Manipulations are a way to handle dynamic multi-touch interactions such as pinching and stretching. Together, the gestures and manipulations provide the touch patterns for touch interaction with UWP app. For more info, see Custom user interactions and Touch interaction design.

Prominent API of UIElement that support gestures and manipulations:

Basic appearance

The Visibility and Opacity properties are frequently used to adjust the appearance of an element in your UI, especially within styles, templates, and visual states. The Clip, RenderTransform, and Transitions properties are each useful for producing interactions and different looks for your UI elements.

Basic layout

The UIElement class provides a starting point for layout characteristics with properties such as DesiredSize and the Arrange and Measure methods. FrameworkElement adds more layout capabilities. For more info, see Define layouts with XAML and FrameworkElement.

Routed events

Most of the input events of UIElement are routed events. A routed event enables a built-in event handling notification system, so that a parent object can handle input events from child objects in the object tree if the event remains unhandled. This input event behavior is useful for input area grouping, and for control compositing. For more info, see Events and routed events overview.

Prominent API of UIElement that support routed events: AddHandler, RemoveHandler, *Event properties.

Other platform support

UIElement dependency properties

Many of the read-write properties of the UIElement base element class are dependency properties. Dependency properties support some of the basic programming model features for a UWP app using C++, C#, or Visual Basic, such as styles and templates, data binding, XAML resource references, and property-changed logic. For more info on dependency properties and the features they support, see Dependency properties overview.

UIElement derived classes

The only Windows Runtime class that derives directly from UIElement is FrameworkElement. For a list of the classes that derive from FrameworkElement, see the "FrameworkElement derived classes" section of the FrameworkElement reference topic.

Methods

AddHandler(RoutedEvent, Object, Boolean)

Adds a routed event handler for a specified routed event, adding the handler to the handler collection on the current element. Specify handledEventsToo as true to have the provided handler be invoked even if the event is handled elsewhere.

Arrange(Rect)

Positions child objects and determines a size for a UIElement. Parent objects that implement custom layout for their child elements should call this method from their layout override implementations to form a recursive layout update.

CancelDirectManipulations()

Cancels ongoing direct manipulation processing (system-defined panning/zooming) on any ScrollViewer parent that contains the current UIElement.

CapturePointer(Pointer)

Sets pointer capture to a UIElement. Once captured, only the element that has capture will fire pointer-related events.

ClearValue(DependencyProperty)

Clears the local value of a dependency property.

(Inherited from DependencyObject)
FindSubElementsForTouchTargeting(Point, Rect)

Enables a UIElement subclass to expose child elements that assist with resolving touch targeting.

GetAnimationBaseValue(DependencyProperty)

Returns any base value established for a dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active.

(Inherited from DependencyObject)
GetChildrenInTabFocusOrder()

Enables a UIElement subclass to expose child elements that take part in Tab focus.

GetValue(DependencyProperty)

Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject.

(Inherited from DependencyObject)
InvalidateArrange()

Invalidates the arrange state (layout) for a UIElement. After the invalidation, the UIElement will have its layout updated, which will occur asynchronously.

InvalidateMeasure()

Invalidates the measurement state (layout) for a UIElement.

Measure(Size)

Updates the DesiredSize of a UIElement. Typically, objects that implement custom layout for their layout children call this method from their own MeasureOverride implementations to form a recursive layout update.

OnBringIntoViewRequested(BringIntoViewRequestedEventArgs)

Called before the BringIntoViewRequested event occurs.

OnCreateAutomationPeer()

When implemented in a derived class, returns class-specific AutomationPeer implementations for the Microsoft UI Automation infrastructure.

OnDisconnectVisualChildren()

Override this method to implement how layout and logic should behave when items are removed from a class-specific content or children property.

OnKeyboardAcceleratorInvoked(KeyboardAcceleratorInvokedEventArgs)

Called when a keyboard shortcut (or accelerator) is processed in your app. Override this method to handle how your app responds when a keyboard accelerator is invoked.

OnProcessKeyboardAccelerators(ProcessKeyboardAcceleratorEventArgs)

Called just before a keyboard shortcut (or accelerator) is processed in your app. Invoked whenever application code or internal processes call ProcessKeyboardAccelerators. Override this method to influence the default accelerator handling.

PopulatePropertyInfo(String, AnimationPropertyInfo)

Defines a property that can be animated.

PopulatePropertyInfoOverride(String, AnimationPropertyInfo)

When overridden in a derived class, defines a property that can be animated.

ReadLocalValue(DependencyProperty)

Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set.

(Inherited from DependencyObject)
