CanMove Property

The CanMove property can be set to false on a LayoutDocument in order to lock a document in its current position in the layout. This means, The user should not be able drag and drop the document to a different position if CanMove = false.

On way to do this is a custom implementation of the LayoutInitializer class using the BeforeInsertDocument method to setup this property:

public bool BeforeInsertDocument(LayoutRoot layout,
                                 LayoutDocument documentToShow,
                                 ILayoutContainer destinationContainer)
{
  documentToShow.CanMove = false;

  return false;
}
