Hi,
I was thinking about something, what about opening the color picker when you click on the little square displaying the actual color ?
When my grid is really wide and I have multiple consecutive color Pickers, it's a bit hard to find the correct button to click on.
It would be easier if I could click on the display square.
Would it be possible ?
Hi Antoine,
I'm not sure we're going to add that since it's a bit non-standard behavior-wise, but you could always set the IsEditable property to false. When that is false, clicking anywhere on the control will open the popup because it acts like a non-editable ComboBox at that point. Perhaps that would yield a better user experience in your scenario?
Or alternatively, you could possibly handle the PreviewMouseDown event and watch for a click on the left 20 or so pixels of the control. Then set the control's IsPopupOpen property to true in that scenario.
Hi !
I think it's a really standard behavior but anyway.
I still need to be able to edit the hexa value so IsEditable = false doesn't solve my problem.
I handled the PreviewMouseDown event without watching for a specific spot and it worked for the whole edit box but the displaying square. It correctly goes through the event, the colorEditBox.IsPopupOpen = true is triggered but nothing happens.
Hello,
I believe what happens here is that if you don't also mark e.Handled = true, the click may get processed by an ancestor ScrollViewer, which could steal focus and trigger the popup to close immediately. Give that a try to see if it helps.
Hi !
You were right ! Thanks a lot !
