Get notified when the left mouse button is released?

Hello,

I CircularGauge in interactive mode (CanDrag of the needle = true) and I'm trying to get a notification when the left mouse button is released. I've tried the MouseUp and MouseLeftButtonUp events on the Gauge control as well as the MouseUp and MouseLeftButtonUp events on the Needle control. Here is the Xaml I'm using (I've removed the non working event hook ups):


<Gauge:CircularGauge BackgroundType="None" RimType="None" Width="196" Height="171">
  <ACB:CommandBehaviorCollection.Behaviors>
      <ACB:BehaviorBinding Event="MouseLeave" Command="{Binding ReleaseOutsideServiceKeySwitchCommand}" />
          <!-- The line below doesn't work -->
      <ACB:BehaviorBinding Event="MouseLeftButtonUp" Command="{Binding ReleaseOutsideServiceKeySwitchCommand}" />
  </ACB:CommandBehaviorCollection.Behaviors>
    <Gauge:CircularScale StartAngle="225" SweepAngle="90" IsBarVisible="False">
        <Gauge:CircularTickSet Minimum="0" Maximum="2" MajorInterval="1" MinorInterval="1">
            <Gauge:CircularTickSet.Ticks>
                <Gauge:CircularTickLabelCustom Value="0" Text="C.L." FontSize="18" />
                <Gauge:CircularTickLabelCustom Value="1" Text="0" FontSize="18" ScaleOffset="10" ScalePlacement="Inside" />
                <Gauge:CircularTickLabelCustom Value="2" Text="S.O." FontSize="18" />
            </Gauge:CircularTickSet.Ticks>
            <Gauge:CircularTickSet.Pointers>
                <Gauge:CircularPointerNeedle Value="{Binding ServiceKeySwitch, Mode=TwoWay, FallbackValue=1}" ImageSource="/VirtualTrain;Component/Images/Selector.png" NeedleType="CustomImage" CanDrag="True" IsSnappingEnabled="True" HasDropShadow="False" />
            </Gauge:CircularTickSet.Pointers>
        </Gauge:CircularTickSet>
    </Gauge:CircularScale>
</Gauge:CircularGauge>

Please also note that I was able to bind to the MouseLeave event without any difficulty.

Is there a way I can get notified when the left mouse button is released?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Julien,

The pointers will set e.Handled to true, so you would have to add a handler for "handled" events. Check out UIElement.AddHandler(RoutedEvent routedEvent, Delegate handler, bool handledEventsToo).

If you can't add a handler that way, you could create a class that derives from CircularPointerNeedle and override OnMouseLeftButtonUp. In your override, you'd call the base class, then reset e.Handled to false.

Thank you, it works great.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.1) was released 2 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
