Hi !
I want to get notified when an item in a ListBox gets clicked by the mouse, whether it is already selected or not.
I searched and found this: (http://kevin-berridge.blogspot.com/2008/06/wpf-listboxitem-double-click.html see the comments)
private void AddDoubleClickEventStyle(ListBox listBox, MouseButtonEventHandler mouseButtonEventHandler)
{
if (listBox.ItemContainerStyle == null)
listBox.ItemContainerStyle = new Style(typeof(ListBoxItem));
listBox.ItemContainerStyle.Setters.Add(new EventSetter()
{
Event = MouseDoubleClickEvent,
Handler = mouseButtonEventHandler
});
}
Usage:
AddDoubleClickEventStyle(listView1, new MouseButtonEventHandler(listView1_MouseDoubleClick));
This works, but it does it for a DoubleClick. I can't get it working for a single click though. I tried MouseLeftButtonDownEvent - as there doesn't seem to be a MouseClick event, but it's not being called.
A bit more general side question: How can I see what events do exist and which handlers correspond to them and when they actually do something? For example, what tells me that for a MouseDoubleClickEvent I need a MouseButtonEventHandler ? Maybe for a MouseLeftButtonDownEvent I need some other handler and that's why it's not working?
I also tried subclassing ListBoxItem and override OnMouseLeftButtonDown - but it doesn't get called either.
