Methods

The ITfUIElementMgr interface has these methods.

ITfUIElementMgr::BeginUIElement The ITfUIElementMgr::BeginUIElement method is called by a text service before showing UI. The value returned determines whether the UI for the text service should be shown or not.
ITfUIElementMgr::EndUIElement The ITfUIElementMgr::EndUIElement method is called by a text service when the element of UI is hidden.
ITfUIElementMgr::EnumUIElements The ITfUIElementMgr::EnumUIElements method returns IEnumTfUIElements interface pointer to enumerate the ITfUIElement.
ITfUIElementMgr::GetUIElement The ITfUIElementMgr::GetUIElement method gets the ITfUIElement interface of the element id.
ITfUIElementMgr::UpdateUIElement The ITfUIElementMgr::UpdateUIElement method is called by a text service when the UI element must be updated.

A text service that supports UIElement must call ITfUIElementMgr whenever the UI is shown, updated or hidden. Then the application can control the visibility of the UI.
