Determines how AutoHide (autohidden) tool windows are revealed and dismissed by the user.

Namespace: Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools

Assembly: Syncfusion.Tools.Windows.dll

Syntax

public enum AutoHideSelectionStyle

Remarks

The AutoHideSelectionStyle enum controls the interaction model for autohide panes in the docking layout. Choose MouseHover to show/hide panels on pointer hover, providing quick previews; choose Click to require an explicit click to reveal panels, reducing accidental activation. This setting affects accessibility, UX, and discoverability of tool windows in applications built with the docking framework.

Fields

Click	Reveal and hide the autohide window only when the user clicks the tab or strip. Use when explicit activation is preferred to avoid accidental reveals.
MouseHover	Reveal and hide the autohide window when the user moves the mouse over its tab or strip. Use for lightweight, hover-based previews of tool windows.
