OnMouseDown() not called in renderer

[Administrator]

I have a class derived from GridStaticCellRenderer. I''m overriding the OnMouseDown() method but it never seems to get called. Anything I''m missing here?

I have:

protected override void OnMouseDown(int rowIndex, int colIndex, MouseEventArgs e)
{
Debug.WriteLine("Mousedown");
}

But it just never gets called.

Thanks.

In order for the renderer to get mouse messages, you need to override renderer.OnHitTest. Your override should return non-zero when you want the message to be handles by the renderer''s mouse handlers.

The grid\samples\indepth\DerivedCellControlTutorial does this type of thing to handle the mouse messages associated with a LinkLabel cell.

Excellent. That was my last issue for today (and hopefully a while). Thanks for all your help.
