• Windows Forms Listbox MouseDown and SelectedIndexChanged Event Handlers Conflicting

  I have two databound listboxes which when I use drag-n-drop the MouseDown Event does not allow the SelectedIndexChanged Event or Click/DoubleClick events to be handled. Any suggestions. I had the same problems. To get around the selectedIndexchanged problem (and resultant errors that the count of selected indexes was set but the selected indexes and items were not set properly) I had to just keep my own arraylists of the indexes that I selected in the mousedown box.  It was tricky because I now needed to manage the lists but I was able to make it happen. To get around the double click all that has to be done is to use the MouseEventArgs e.clicks to see if they are 2.  If they are 2 then it ...Show All

• Windows Forms Rename designed components programmatically

  I'm implementing a control similar to the VS Document Outline as a TreeView object populated with components. I need to be able to change the component's name by editing the TreeNode's text. What is the correct way (so that the change registers with PropertyGrid, UndoEngine, etc) to programmatically change the name of a designed component Just changing Site.Name isn't good enough. Right that will work as long as you are within a transaction. Undo/Redo and the PropertyGrid listens to TransactionClosed and do their updating there. If you use TypeDescriptors, you don't have to do the ComponentChanging/Changed. If you set the properties directly, then you do. But you have to do this within a transaction. ...Show All
