Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Overridable Property Modal As Boolean
public virtual bool Modal {get; set;}

Property Value

the initial value is false
Remarks
This property is ignored when AutoPan is true.

When you add an instance of this non-autopanning tool to the GoView.MouseDownTools, you are using it in a non-Modal fashion. GoToolPanning panningtool = new GoToolPanning(myView); panningtool.AutoPan = false; myView.MouseDownTools.Add(panningtool); This allows the user to use the other mode-less mouse tools, such as selecting, dragging, resizing, and linking as well as this manual panning tool when the user does a mouse down in the background.

If you use this manual panning tool in a modal fashion, the user will remain in this tool, able to pan the view whenever the user drags the mouse anywhere in the view. GoToolPanning panningtool = new GoToolPanning(myView); panningtool.AutoPan = false; panningtool.Modal = true; myView.Tool = panningtool; The user can leave this mode by pressing the Cancel key or any other key.
