Remarks

The Deactivate event is raised when the current active View control becomes inactive. A View control becomes inactive when the value of the ActiveViewIndex property changes or the SetActiveView method is called to specify a different View control. For example, if View1 is the active view within a MultiView control, when the ActiveViewIndex property changes to specify View2, the Deactivate event is raised for View1 and the Activate event is raised for View2.
