In a user control, is it possible to replace the default mouse events with
my own?
In particular, I want the consumer of my control to get MouseMove events
when the mouse is over my control, so that they can change the cursor.
However, my control has several standard controls on it, and the consumer of
my control only gets MouseMove events when the mouse is over the control
itself, and not when it is over the standard controls. Therefore, I want to
raise/invoke the MouseMove event myself, when the mouse moves over these
standard controls. How can I do this?
TIA

You will have to add handlers for the embedded controls' mouse events
and call the appropriate 'MyBase.On*(sen der, e)' method in the handler
in order to raise the event for the usercontrol.

Herfried, you are the dog's doo-dahs (abstruse English compliment q.v.
"cat's pyjamas").
You clearly know stuff, but honestly, I did look all over before asking the
question. Where are such gems hidden? As far as I can tell this is not
alluded to in the MSDN, and when I looked up the error message "Derived
classes cannot raise base class events" there was no mention of the solution
you gave. Ever thought of writing a book?

I'm trying to capture mouse events on a usercontrol as a Listview does not

I would like now to be able to get the mouse event messages into some
readable information ! Any Idea on how to proceed ? They are...

Hello!
I have a UserControl that have two other controls inside it. I need to set a
different border color for my UserControl when the mouse enters it, and
restore the border color when the mouse leaves it.
The problem is, when the mouse passes in a contained control, the
UserControl raises a MouseLeave and the border is restored back, although
the mouse, for the customer, is yet inside the UserControl.

Now the problem I have is these Events will never be fired because the entire dialog is covered by the...

Hi,
I would like to move a UserControl in a drag-and-drop way (user clicks on control and while the button is down the control changes its location fallowing the mouse).
I start the drag process in a MouseDown event but while the mouse button (left) is pressed my UserControl does not get any MouseMove (or any other mouse) event.
What event is triggered when a mouse is moved over a control while a button is pressed?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
