Select an Item in ListBox Control on MouseDown Event

[Andy]

When using the standard listbox control i use the IndexFromPoint Method to get the item at the point of the mouse click...
like...

private void listBox1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    int index = listBox1.IndexFromPoint(e.Location);
    listBox1.SelectedIndex = index;
}

is a there a way to do such with a RadListControl?

Hello Andy,

Thank you for writing and for the provided code snippet.

To achieve the same functionality using the RadListControl, you should use the following code:

private void radListControl1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
  RadElement element = this.radListControl1.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location);

  if (!(element is RadListVisualItem))
  {
    element = element.FindAncestor<RadListVisualItem>();
  }

  if (element != null)
  {
    RadListDataItem item = ((RadListVisualItem)element).Data;
    this.radListControl1.SelectedItem = item;
  }
}

I hope you will find this useful. Please note that we are still expecting an answer from your on the questions asked in your thread: "unable to clear multiple selected dates". This will allow us to continue supporting your enquiries.
