Windows.UI.ApplicationSettings.SettingsPane

-description

Note

SettingsPane is deprecated, and might not work on all versions of Windows 10. Instead of using a SettingsPane, integrate settings options into the app experience. For more info, see Guidelines for app settings.

A static class that enables the app to control the Settings Charm pane. The app can add or remove commands, receive a notification when the user opens the pane, or open the pane programmatically.

-remarks

Note

This class is not agile, which means that you need to consider its threading model and marshaling behavior. For more info, see Threading and Marshaling (C++/CX) and Using Windows Runtime objects in a multithreaded environment (.NET).

-examples

The following code shows how to add app commands by using the SettingsPane and SettingsCommand classes. For the full example, see App settings sample.
