Examples
The Search contract sample demonstrates how to respond to a Search activated event.
Note
Window.Activate is called in the EnsureMainPageActivatedAsync private method, not shown.
()
async protected override void OnSearchActivated(SearchActivatedEventArgs args)
{
await EnsureMainPageActivatedAsync(args);
if (args.QueryText == "")
{
// Navigate to landing page.
}
else
{
// Display search results.
MainPage.Current.ProcessQueryText(args.QueryText);
}
}
Remarks
If your app integrates with the Search contract, a SearchActivatedEventArgs object is passed to your app's OnSearchActivated activation point handler when the user searches the app from the Search charm and your app is not the main app on screen. This type of activation is indicated by the ActivationKind.Search value returned by the Kind property.
Learn how to let users search with your app in Quickstart: Adding search. Learn about responding to other search-related events and customizing the search box and suggestions using the SearchPane class in the Windows.ApplicationModel.Search namespace reference.
All Application overrides involved in an activation scenario should call Window.Activate in their implementations.
