GridView Mouse Events

[Surya]

Hi,

I tried implementing File Drag and Drop operations from Windows Explorer to Gridview using Mouse Down and Mouse Up events but it did not
behave as expected.

Please suggest solutions for the following things regarding drag and drop operations of Grid view

1) How to perform drag and drop operations from Grid view to Windows Explorer similar to Drag Enter and Drag Drop events.
Is there any specific event to perform it.

2) How to get the current state of Mouse Buttons (Pressed or Released) when holding a button during drag operations in Mouse Down event

3) How to validate/ handle the Single Click and double click during drag operations.

4) How to terminate the DoDrag Event which is intialized by calling Gridview.DoDragDrop .

Thanks.

Hello Surya,

Thank you for writing.

If you want to drag and drop files to grid view you should implement DragEnter and DragDrop events apart from AllowDrop. Here is a great article discussing the issues you are asking about: drag'n'drop files to a gridview

Hope that helps. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
