Remarks

Important

To implement search in an app for Windows 10 or later, use AutoSuggestBox. See Auto-suggest box for more info.

You should not use Windows.ApplicationModel.Search APIs (SearchPane, SearchContract) or SearchBox APIs in apps for Windows 10 or later.

The suggestions that the app provides are based on metadata fields and properties on the user's local, indexed files.

If enabled, local suggestions are displayed in the search pane when the user enters a query in the search box.

Disable these suggestions by setting the Enabled property to false.

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).

Constructors

LocalContentSuggestionSettings()

Creates a new instance of the LocalContentSuggestionSettings class.
