Mouse button press in silverlight 3

Question

I have an slider control in my application and an image control. When the slider value is going up, the image is zoomed in and vice versa.

In addtion i have a zoom-in and a zoom-out button. the zoom-in button will increase the slider value by one smallchange and the zoom-out will decrease it.

What i want: while the zoom-in (and out) button is pressed i want to slider to keep increasing(performin a zoom in) and not just one time.

In other words, as long as the left button is pressed, i want to keep performing the mousebuttonpressed on the button until the mousebutton is released.

Oh, by the way, im using Silverlight 3.

Thanks.

You can use the RepeatButton class to do this. It raises it's click event repeatedly while held down, much like the thumb of a scrollbar or an up/down spinner.
