I need to only fire the page click event if a normal page click happens, not when a user clicks somewhere on my page, then drags the mouse to a different location and lets go of the mouse button. Right now the page click event is fired when the user lets go of the mouse button regardless of where he first clicked or how long the mouse button was held down for. I cannot modify any code in the mouse drag, mouse down, or mouse up events unfortunately, so no solution involving these events will work for me.

I have a Windows Form in C# with 4 buttons with different states that I use as a menu.
What is the best way to use/implement the different button states.
Normal --> Mouse Enter, Mouse Leave and Mouse click. On click, that specific button should stay the clicked color and only change back to normal once a different button is clicked. Clicked color should also not change again on mouse enter or mouse leave. Should be flat buttons.
Thanks
change background of all buttons to default on click.
Then apply the Required backrgound to the button which triggered the click event by using the sender variable of the event
I have an operation that requires me to use Mouse Click, Mouse Down and Mouse Up events. However, the Mouse Down and Mouse Up events are being called when the Mouse Click event occurs. i.e. They are over riding the Click Event. Any ideas of how to work around this situation. I have to use these events in order to complete the operation in the viewport.
I am using Win Forms events with C#.
first of all Why you want to use all three events ? In which order you expect these events to be fired?
mousedown
Fires when the user depresses the mouse button.
mouseup
Fires when the user releases the mouse button.
click
Fires when a mousedown and mouseup event occur on the same element.
Mouse Click = Mouse Down + Mouse Up
So definitely if you have all three events in your form all of them will be fired.
I'm working on an application which needs a right click menu, I've used a contextMenuStrip for the this, but when the menu is open and I rightclick again my form click events are always one behind so the last event is triggered instead of the current one.
I've tried closing the menu when the right mouse button is pressed and showing it when it's released, but it still does the same thing.
I figured out the problem, I was updating the mouse position in an onMouseMove event and keeping it in my static MouseState class and the onMouseMove event wasn't happening while the context menu was up. I'm now updating the mouse on mouse down/up/move using form.PointToClient(Cursor.Position)
Hope this helps others with similar issues.
In a mouseclick handler, is the correct way to know whether to show a context menu to check the event's Button property against MouseButtons.Right? If so, wouldn't there be a problem when a (probably left-handed) user tries to use your application with the mouse buttons reversed?
No it won't be a problem if mouse buttons are reversed.
Lets says I have reversed my mouse buttons, so when I press left mouse button, Windows will raise event for MouseButtons.Right and similarly MouseButtons.Left when right button is pressed.
Here is the problem:
I have a simple c# form
I have a simple c# user control containing a picturebox and other button.
My form contains one instance of the user control.
I want that when the user do a mouseEnter in the picture box, the mouse cursor change and when the user do a mouseLeave of the picturebox, the mouse go back to normal.
What is happening now is that the events are not fired at all. I put break point into MouseOver, MouseEnter, MouseMove, MouseLeave, etc and none of thems fired. It's the first time I have this problem in C#.
I think it has something to do with the "routed event" but I can't figure it out. If there is another way to achieve what I'm doing, this will also be considered a solution. What is important is that at the end, the user control will be the master of the mouse cursor over his "territory".
Thanks in advance!
What events are you using? The UserController.MouseEnter and UserController.MouseLeave events or the PictureBox.MouseEnter and PictureBox.MouseLeave events?
You should use the latter as the PictureBox will handle the event if the mouse enters the user controller directly through the PictureBox.
As InBetween wrote, PictureBox.MouseXXX should be firing. You can trap those in your UserControl.
If you want the event to be fired on behalf of UserControl, just disable the PictureBox. Be aware though that the event would fire for any mouse position over the UserContrl, not only the PictureBox.
