FrameworkElement.GetFlowDirection(DependencyObject) Method

Definition

Gets the value of the FlowDirection attached property for the specified DependencyObject.

public:
 static System::Windows::FlowDirection GetFlowDirection(System::Windows::DependencyObject ^ element);
public static System.Windows.FlowDirection GetFlowDirection (System.Windows.DependencyObject element);
static member GetFlowDirection : System.Windows.DependencyObject -> System.Windows.FlowDirection
Public Shared Function GetFlowDirection (element As DependencyObject) As FlowDirection

Parameters

element
DependencyObject

The element to return a FlowDirection for.

Returns

The requested flow direction, as a value of the enumeration.

Remarks

The main purpose of this method is to support attached property syntax for the FlowDirection property, therefore allowing child elements of a provided FrameworkElement to specify flow direction for the arrangement within their parent element. To get the value on the current FrameworkElement, use the direct common language runtime (CLR) accessor FlowDirection.
