Is there a virtual OnMouseClick() handler?

[ntdev]

I'd like to handle click events in some of the frame anchors of my custom DrawingTool.

I can override OnMouseDown, OnMouseMove and OnMouseUp but don't see a way to detect click events.

Do I need to do my own detection, maybe OnMouseDown, followed by a OnMouseUp without much movement?

Helo ntdev,

Thanks for your question.

There is not a MouseClick event I could suggest. The offered events are OnMouseDown, OnMouseUp and OnMouseMove. If you use intellisense/intelliprompt to check ChartControl for additional events, we can see that a MouseClick event is not offered.

Yes, I would suggest the same as you are to detect when the mouse is in a down position for the first part of your click and then to store a bool that is checked in the mouse up event to identify a click.

You could track the mouse position in OnMouseDown and compare that position in OnMouseUp if you want the click to be invalidated if the user clicks and drags from point A to point B and you do not want that registered as a click.

We look forward to assisting.

Thanks Jim. Yes, that's what I thought but it was worth a shot to ask.
