Obsolete TreeView is now deprecated. You can likely now use TreeView<int> instead and not think more about it. But if you were using that identifier to store InstanceID data, you should instead opt to upgrade your TreeViews to use TreeView<InstanceID> to get the proper typing.

Declaration

protected bool CanRename(TreeViewItem item);

Parameters

Parameter Description
item Can this item be renamed?

Description

Override this method to control whether the item can be renamed using a keyboard shortcut or when clicking an already selected item.

Keyboard shortcuts: Windows/Linux: F2; Mac OS X: Return. Default behavior: returns false.
