uwp grab and drag whole window from anywhere like titlebar

a UWP app window can be dragged around the screen by holding the title bar, my question is how we can enable same feature on whole window? I mean user can grab the app from literally anywhere within the window of that app. and can drag it around the screen with mouse on a PC or any other touch device or pen input on other devices like tablets and surface hub.?

Solution

  • You can override the title bar with:

    Window.Current.SetTitleBar(UIElement value);

    If the UIElement you set is a hit target, it will behave like the default title bar and allow you to drag.
