#848 – IsDefaulted vs. IsDefault for a Button

The IsDefault property can be set for a Button to indicate that you’d like the button to act as a default button for a window, i.e. activate when the user presses the ENTER key.

The IsDefaulted property is a read-only property that indicates if a Button is currently acting as the default button for a window, meaning that it would activate if the user pressed ENTER at this moment.

IsDefaulted will be true if all of the following is true:

  • IsDefault for the Button is set to true
  • Some other control currently has focus
  • The control that currently has focus does not itself handle the ENTER key
