ABout SetShouldSuspendMousePromotion

[Pablo]

Hello, i downloading demo of software and start a new emptyu project in order to start to test.
The first feature i like of telerik is apparently can prevent muse promotion n touch event.

I create this code, but not work:

amespace TelerikWpfApp1
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class MainWindow : Window
    {
        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchManager.IsEnabled = true;
            Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchManager.IsTouchEnabled = true;
            Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchManager.SetShouldSuspendMousePromotion(this, true);
        }


    }
}


I run this empty app, and mouse promotion wont stop.
Why?
What I doing wrong?

I start think the touch event not is handled or something is wrong but i just add a messagebox for check if touch happens, and yes event is there, but mouse promotion continue and not is suspended. Why?

            Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchManager.SetShouldSuspendMousePromotion(this, true);
            Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchManager.AddTouchDownEventHandler(this, this.TouchDown);

        }




        private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
     
        }
       public void TouchDown(object sender,  Telerik.Windows.Input.Touch.TouchEventArgs  e)
        {
            e.Handled = true;

            MessageBox.Show("Touched!");
        }



    }
}

I touch any part of the windows and touch event is there, but if touch any part of the window, tpuch promote the mouse event, and mouse pointer is moved under my finger.

Hello Pablo,

The ShouldSuspendMousePromotion suspends only mouse events. However, the mouse cursor will still move when you touch on a tablet or a monitor that supports cursors. This behavior is Windows OS based on there is no WPF API that allows changing this behavior. This is why the Telerik TouchManager doesn't suspend the mouse cursor moving. 

I hope this answers your question.
