Dim instance As MultiViewPanel

public sealed class MultiViewPanel : PanelBase

Remarks

Changing the active view makes the panel animate its containers to their new layout and configurations automatically.

Can only be used in Xceed's ItemsPanelTemplate.

Example

The following code snippet shows how to set up a MultiViewPanel containing a PathView and a two StackViews.
