Windows.UI.Core Namespace

Provides the basic user interface window components, including core input events and event dispatch.

Classes

AcceleratorKeyEventArgs	Provides the arguments returned by an accelerator key event callback.
AutomationProviderRequestedEventArgs	Provides the arguments returned by an automation provider request event callback.
BackRequestedEventArgs	Provides event data for the SystemNavigationManager.BackRequested event.
CharacterReceivedEventArgs	Provides the arguments returned by the event raised when a character is received by the input queue.
ClosestInteractiveBoundsRequestedEventArgs	Provides event data for the ClosestInteractiveBoundsRequested event. Not intended for general use. See CoreComponentInputSource.ClosestInteractiveBoundsRequested and CoreWindow.ClosestInteractiveBoundsRequested.
CoreAcceleratorKeys	Provides the basic behavior for an accelerator key.
CoreComponentInputSource	Provides a mechanism to receive input for a XAML framework element hosted in another framework, such as a DirectX interop framework.
CoreCursor	Defines a cursor (visual pointer) object.
CoreDispatcher	Provides the Windows Runtime core event message dispatcher. Instances of this type are responsible for processing the window messages and dispatching the events to the client.
CoreIndependentInputSource	Surfaces core input APIs for interoperation scenarios.
CoreIndependentInputSourceController	Represents an object that creates a CoreIndependentInputSource for the associated visual object and manages the input received by that source.
CoreWindow	Represents the UWP app with input events and basic user interface behaviors.
CoreWindowDialog	Defines a child dialog of an app window. In a desktop app, before using an instance of this class in a way that displays UI, you'll need to associate the object with its owner's window handle. For more info, and code examples, see Display WinRT UI objects that depend on CoreWindow.
CoreWindowEventArgs	Contains the set of arguments returned to an app after a window input or behavior event.
CoreWindowFlyout	Defines a child flyout of an app window. In a desktop app, before using an instance of this class in a way that displays UI, you'll need to associate the object with its owner's window handle. For more info, and code examples, see Display WinRT UI objects that depend on CoreWindow.
CoreWindowPopupShowingEventArgs	Defines a method for setting the desired size of a popup window.
CoreWindowResizeManager	Defines a type used to manage CoreWindow.SizeChanged events. This type is used by frameworks (such as XAML) or apps that implement their own IFrameWorkView to synchronize the handover between shell drawn placholder (such as a splash screen) and the apps first drawn frame, so that there is no gap in the transition from one to the other. If your app does not implement the IFrameWorkView itself you should not participate in this synchronization as the framework will do it for you.
IdleDispatchedHandlerArgs	Defines the arguments returned by a IdleDispatchedHandler callback.
InputEnabledEventArgs	Contains the window input state returned by the CoreWindow.InputEnabled event.
KeyEventArgs	Contains the arguments returned by a virtual key event.
PointerEventArgs	Contains the arguments returned by the last pointer event.
SystemNavigationManager	Provides a way for an app to respond to system provided back-navigation events.
TouchHitTestingEventArgs	Contains the arguments returned by the TouchHitTesting event.
VisibilityChangedEventArgs	Contains the arguments returned by the event fired when a CoreWindow instance's visibility changes.
WindowActivatedEventArgs	Contains the windows activation state information returned by the CoreWindow.Activated event.
WindowSizeChangedEventArgs	Contains the argument returned by a window size change event.

Structs

CorePhysicalKeyStatus	Specifies the set of physical key status items that can be obtained.
CoreProximityEvaluation	Contains the rank of an object as the probable target of the touch contact area.

Interfaces

ICoreAcceleratorKeys	Provides an interface that defines the basic behavior for an accelerator key.
ICoreInputSourceBase	Defines the base interface for an input source used by a CoreWindow.
ICorePointerInputSource	Defines the behavior of pointer input (for processing on a worker thread).
ICorePointerInputSource2	Defines the behavior of pointer input (for processing on a worker thread).
ICorePointerRedirector	Defines pointer events for cross-process input handling. An implementation of the ICorePointerRedirector interface is provided by the CoreWindow class. Input chaining refers to the interaction behavior of both a parent object (host) and a nested child object (component) when an input boundary is reached. In a single process, chaining embedded (or nested) content is managed by the system (through Direct Manipulation). For cross-process chaining, the pointer events defined in this interface provide input routing details.
ICoreWindow	Specifies an interface for a window object and its input events as well as basic user interface behaviors.
ICoreWindowEventArgs	Defines the set of arguments returned to an app after a window input or behavior event.
IInitializeWithCoreWindow	Defines the initialization behavior for apps that use CoreWindow.

Enums

AppViewBackButtonVisibility	Defines constants that specify whether the back button is shown in the system UI.
CoreAcceleratorKeyEventType	Specifies the set of possible accelerator key events that can invoke a callback.
CoreCursorType	Specifies the set of cursor types.
CoreDispatcherPriority	Defines the priority for window event dispatches.
CoreIndependentInputFilters	Specifies the supported filtering criteria for certain input device types.
CoreInputDeviceTypes	Specifies user input modalities. These values can be combined.
CoreProcessEventsOption	Specifies the set of exclusive event-processing options passed to ProcessEvents.
CoreProximityEvaluationScore	Specifies the rank of an object as the probable target, relative to other objects that intersect the touch contact area.
CoreVirtualKeyStates	Specifies flags for indicating the possible states of a virtual key.
CoreWindowActivationMode	Defines constants that specify the activation state of a window.
CoreWindowActivationState	Specifies the set of reasons that a CoreWindow's Activated event was raised.
CoreWindowFlowDirection	Specifies the flow order for text in a window.

Delegates

DispatchedHandler	Represents the method that handles CoreWindow dispatch events.
IdleDispatchedHandler	Represents the method that handles CoreWindow idle priority dispatch events. It is invoked when CoreDispatcher.RunIdleAsync is called.
