Question

I have used a runtime draggable label in WPF which i found here.

I want to move this label on key up and down button. The problem is that label does not register key down or key up event. How to do this?

I was told here that i should disguise a textbox as a label but then the dragging facility disappears. How to achieve label key down without disguise?

Answer 1

You can move the label by this way-

1. Add Mouse down event to the label and give it focus-

   private void label1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
   {
       label1.Focus();
   }
   

2. Set this property for this label-

   Focusable="True" 
   

This way the label will respond to your key down event.
