Causes the tool to no longer be the active tool.
[Visual Basic .NET] Public Function Deactivate ( _ ) As Boolean
[C#] public bool Deactivate ( );
[C++]
HRESULT Deactivate(
VARIANT_BOOL* complete
);
[C++]
Parameters complete [out, retval] complete is a parameter of type VARIANT_BOOL
When implementing ITool to create a custom tool, add some logic to the Deactivate method to specify whether this tool can be deactivated. If ITool_Deactivate is set to False, the default, you cannot interact with any other tools because this tool cannot be interrupted by another tool.
