I have create several canvas with transparent background and wanna make some move event on it.

However, I found that all mouse event (e.g. MouseLeftButtonDown) cannot function of the background of the canvas is Null or Transparent. But if I set the background to some solid color (say, red or blue), the mouse event function well.

Why?

Could I make the mouse event function properly with transparent background?

Thank you!

    I’m not sure why you get the results you get but it should work fine when the background is transparent (i.e. you explicitly set it to Brushes.Transparent, either through XAML or code). If it is null, WPF will not include it in hit testing, and thus it won’t be eligible for mouse events.

    See e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms752097.aspx (A visual object that is transparent can also be hit test.)

    Most likely you have another UIElement in your element tree that is capturing and handling the mouse event before your canvas sees it (i.e. by setting e.Handled to true)
