SendMouseDown Property (PressAndHoldGestureEventArgs)

Returns or sets a boolean value indicating whether the control's MouseDown event is raised immediately after execution returns from the firing of this event.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property SendMouseDown As Boolean

C#

public bool SendMouseDown {get; set;}

Remarks

This property is only applicable when the TimeElapsed property returns zero, indicating that this is the first of the two firings of the events for this gesture.

Since a context menu is typically displayed in response to the PressAndHoldGesture event, and because many applications use the MouseDown event to initialize a context menu, a WM_RBUTTONDOWN message is sent to the control, causing the MouseDown event to fire. This property can be set to false to prevent this behavior.
