Version 9.0.2.77903 Changelog (August 11th, 2021)

Version: 9.0.2.77903

Release Date: August 11th, 2021

• [tools] ViewerControl class: property name change

• [tools] ViewerViewModel class: property name change

Document tabs can now be re-ordered by simply dragging and dropping them

Ability to open multiple app's windows with a custom control, in the example below to view and annotate a PDF

The creation of new Windows can be done by using the MultiWindowManager

1var result = await MultiWindowManager.Instance.TryCreateNewWindowAsync(typeof(ViewPdfControl));
2if (result.IsWindowCreated)
3{
4    mExtraWindowId = result.AppViewId;
5}

When the main app is close it should handle the closing of any extra window created by calling await MultiWindowManager.Instance.CloseAllChildWindowsAsync()

1SystemNavigationManagerPreview.GetForCurrentView().CloseRequested += App_CloseRequested;
2
3private async void App_CloseRequested(object sender, SystemNavigationCloseRequestedPreviewEventArgs e)
4{
5    var deferral = e.GetDeferral();
6
7    // Ensure all extra created windows are properly closed on App's exit
8    await MultiWindowManager.Instance.CloseAllChildWindowsAsync();
9
10    deferral.Complete();
11}
