ITool.Deactivate Method (ArcObjects .NET 10.6 SDK)
ArcObjects Library Reference (SystemUI)  

ITool.Deactivate Method

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(
void
);

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Remarks

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.
