Question

I have a problem with probably a simple solution, but I just dont get it right.
So I want something to happen if I press the left mouse button.

private void DrawingPanel_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{  
  if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
  {
   //something happens
  }
}

So, that works fine. but now the problem comes inn. Now I want to check for more clicks within the click event (now that I think about it, is that even possible?)
Something like this:

private void DrawingPanel_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{  
  if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
  {
   //something happens
   //blabla...
   if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
   {
    //Do something
   }
  }
}

Is something like that possible? Because the second if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left) is always true.
How can I do it so that its not automaticlly true?

Answer 1

This won’t work out the way you implemented it, because within that handler you still handle the one mouse-click event.

Try handling the Control.DoubleClick-event instead.
