[Solved] Load Current Date on Double Click

[David]

I am trying to populate the current date in a RadDateTimePicker when I double click on the control, but while trying to override the OnMouseLeftButtonUp(Or down) the overriden event doesn't seem to be fired. 

protected override void  OnMouseLeftButtonUp(System.Windows.Input.MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
     //Code to handle the double click here
}

Is there a way to accomplish loading the current date on a double click in the control?

Hello David,

In order to achieve this you will need to create an attached property and handle the MouseClick there. Please find attached a sample project in which this is illustrated.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help, that worked.  From your answer I also thought of adding a new event that would accomplish the same thing.
 

class DateEditor:RadDateTimePicker
    {

        public DateEditor()
        {
            AddHandler(MouseLeftButtonDownEvent, new MouseButtonEventHandler(NewMouseLeftButtonDown), true);
        }

        private void NewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
        {
            var dropDownDateEditorNew = sender as DropDownDateEditorNew;

            dropDownDateEditorNew.SelectedDate = DateTime.Now;
        }

    }
