Mouse down

[tacticaltrader]

Hi,

Not sure why this doesn't work
Can anyone help?

protected override void OnStartUp()
{
this.ChartControl.MouseDown+=mouseDownHandler;

}
private void mouseDownHandler(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
Print("Hello");
string eventString = null;
switch (e.Button)
{
case MouseButtons.Left:
eventString = "L";
break;
case MouseButtons.Right:
eventString = "R";
break;
case MouseButtons.Middle:
eventString = "M";
break;
case MouseButtons.None:
default:
break;
}

if (eventString=="L")
{
Print("Left Mouse");
}
else
{
Print("Null");
}
}

Thanks
Bruce

Burce, as this would be a more general C# question and therefore unfortunately not supported by us here - I'm leaving this thread open though if a fellow coder from the forums has an idea for you.

Hi there,

i'd been struggling a little with this also. Here's the way you make it work. There's a problem with the way you've added the declaration for the event:

protected override void OnStartUp()
{
ChartControl.ChartPanel.MouseClick += new System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventHandler(mouseClickH andler);
}

public void mouseClickHandler(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)
{
// ...
}
