capture MouseEnter / MouseLeave on Image in WPF TreeViewItem

Question

Hi!

I've done my TreeView all with XAML but now I'd like to manage an event with code-behind and I don't know how. The HierarchicalDataTemplate contains an Image. I need to capture the events MouseEnter / MouseLeave on the Image. I've tried in this way:

<Image x:Name="imgArticolo" Source="{Binding imgArt}">
    <Image.Style TargetType="{x:Type Image}">
        <Style>
            <EventSetter Event="MouseEnter" Handler="iArt_MouseEnter"/>
        </Style>
    </Image.Style>
</Image>

But it doesn't work: error: "MouseEnter member not recognized or not accessible" (from italian)

Can you, please, help me? Thank you! Pileggi

You have an error in your XAML. The TargetType attribute goes in the Style tag, not the Image.Style tag. If you fix this, it should work properly like so:

<Image x:Name="imgArticolo" Source="{Binding imgArt}">
    <Image.Style>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type Image}">
            <EventSetter Event="MouseEnter" Handler="iArt_MouseEnter"/>
        </Style>
    </Image.Style>
</Image>
