I have a RadTextBoxElement control within a RadRibbonBarGroup within a RadRibbonBar.

The problem is that when I click on the TextBoxElement and drag to select some text, if the mouse is move outside of the TextBoxElement and over an adjacent RadButtonElement, the ButtonElement click event fires when the mouse button is released.

Is there any wat to prevent this?  The problem is that the user will casually drag across to select a bunch of text but won't necessarily be careful not to move the mouse out of the TextBoxElement control.

Hi Joe,

Thank you for writing.

This behavior occurs because by default our buttons are clicked on the MouseUp event.
You can workaround this with setting the ButtonElement's ClickMode property to Press:
this.radButtonElement1.ClickMode = Telerik.WinControls.ClickMode.Press;

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Peter
