inheriting picturebox's events

[PT Exorcist]

i want to inherit a class from PictureBox control and that when the event mouseEnter and mouseHover happens it makes something...how do i do that?

pay attention that i dont want to make that the user that uses the class has to write that code..what im questioning is how i make that the class implements that so the user has to write none in the final code

[DevGrp]

you cant. If you inherit a class, you have to write your own code if you want to change anything. So if you inherit from the picturebox class and want to change the implementation of the mouseEnter and mouseHover, you have to override them.

[PT Exorcist]

yea i know but how do i make that?

[DevGrp]

protected override OnMouseEnter(MouseEventArgs e)
{
   //code here
} 

When I get home I try to see if I can do an example.

[PT Exorcist]

ah is it that easy? i though i'd have to make delegates and blablabla lolol

[PT Exorcist]

didnt work..it overrided as function:

        public override void MouseHover(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("...");
        } 

[PT Exorcist]

ah putting the OnMouseHover worked like a sharm

[PT Exorcist]

C:\Documents and Settings\JBRANCO\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\WindowsApplication10\Form1.cs(174): 'WindowsApplication10.extraPictureBox.OnMouseHover(object, System.EventArgs)': no suitable method found to override


bah!

[PT Exorcist]

did it

i had to take away the sender object

[PT Exorcist]

its strange when i put the mouse over the image it takes about 1sec to raise the event..and it only raises the event on the class..if i try to use the class' event it just won't execute

[DevGrp]

The reason for the 1 sec wait is because of the hover. If you over override the OnMouseEnter, its much faster.

and it only raises the event on the class..if i try to use the class' event it just won't execute

What do you mean by this?

[PT Exorcist]

i mean it raises the override i made...but when make

myClass class = new myClass();
class.MouseHover += new blablabla

private void class_MouseHover(blablabla)
code


this part won't be executed..!

[DevGrp]

Post the code and I'll take a look at it.
