Flyout Control For Windows 10

Flyout represents a control that displays lightweight UI that is either information, or requires user interaction. Unlike a dialog, a Flyout can be light dismissed by clicking or tapping outside of it, pressing the device’s back button, or pressing the ‘Esc’ key.

Step 1: Open a blank app and add Button and Flyout Control with a Textblock and button to it either from the toolbox or by copying the following XAML code into your grid.

<TextBlock Text="Flyout Control" FontSize="20"></TextBlock>
<StackPanel>
    <StackPanel Margin="20,30,0,0" Orientation="Horizontal">
        <TextBlock Text="Simple Flyout" VerticalAlignment="Center"></TextBlock <Button Name="myFlyoutButton" Content="Flyout" Margin="15,0,0,0">
        <Button.Flyout>
            <Flyout x:Name="myFlyout">
                <StackPanel>
                    <TextBlock Text="This is a sample flyout"></TextBlock>
                    <Button Name="innerflyoutButton" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Click="innerFlyoutButton_Click">Ok</Button>
                </StackPanel>
            </Flyout>
        </Button.Flyout>
        </Button>
    </StackPanel>
</StackPanel>

 

 

Step 2: Copy and paste the following code to the innerFlyoutButton_Click event in the cs page to hide the Flyout by clicking Ok button.

myFlyout.Hide();

Step 3: Run your application and click on the button which will pop up a flyout and by clicking Ok or clicking anywhere else will also hide it.
