The Parent property of the GraphicsItem class in the Editor namespace provides access to the parent GraphicsItem of the current item. This property is useful for navigating the hierarchy of graphics items, allowing you to determine the parent-child relationships between items.
Use the Parent property to access the parent GraphicsItem of a given item. This can be useful when you need to traverse the hierarchy of graphics items or when you need to perform operations relative to the parent item.
To access the parent item, simply use the Parent property on an instance of GraphicsItem:
GraphicsItem item = ...; // Assume this is an existing GraphicsItem
GraphicsItem parentItem = item.Parent;
If the item is a top-level item with no parent, the Parent property will return null.
GraphicsItem item = new GraphicsItem();
GraphicsItem parentItem = item.Parent;
if (parentItem != null)
{
// Perform operations with the parent item
Console.WriteLine("Parent item found.");
}
else
{
// Handle the case where there is no parent
Console.WriteLine("This item has no parent.");
}
