[2.0][3.0] OnMouseEvent for Buttons[RESOLVED]

coming across a slight problem with the MouseEnter or MouseHover Events,cant seem to get the code correct...getting the BackColor of the Button to change when the Cursor goes over the button..

VB Code:

private void button1_OnMouseEnter(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnMouseEnter(e);
            if (button1.BackColor == Color.Black)
                button1.BackColor = Color.DarkBlue;
            else
                base.OnMouseLeave(e);
            button1.BackColor = Color.Black;
        }
// I'v tried this serveral different ways version 2
 
protected override void OnMouseEnter(EventArgs e)
 
{
 
base.OnMouseEnter(e);
 
button1.BackColor = Color.DarkBlue;
 
 
}
 
 
protected override void OnMouseLeave(EventArgs e)
 
{
 
base.OnMouseLeave(e);
 
button1.BackColor = Color.Black;
 
}

I also tried using the "protected override void"

Just had a quick play and i have no problem with just doing

Code:

---

                private void button1_MouseLeave(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
                {
                        this.button1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkBlue;
                }

                private void button1_MouseEnter(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
                {
                        this.button1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;
                }

So are you trying to handle the events of a standard Button on a form or are you trying to create a custom Button class? If you're handling events of a standard Button on a form then you should add the code that FishCake posted to the form. If you're trying to create a custom Button class then its code should look something like this:

Code:

---

class MyButton : System.Windows.Forms.Button
{
    protected override void OnMouseEnter(EventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnMouseEnter(e);
        this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
    }

    protected override void OnMouseLeave(EventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnMouseLeave(e);
        this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;
    }
}
