Question

Is there some sort of equivalent of CellMouseEnter from the winforms DataGridView control for use in WPF? I cant seem to find anything in the documention.

Or is there a more efficient way of doing it instead of the MouseMove event on the whole data grid?

Answer 1

You could subscribe to the enter event on the individual cells like this:

<DataGrid.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="{x:Type DataGridCell}">
        <EventSetter Event="MouseEnter" Handler="SomeHandler" />
    </Style>
</DataGrid.Resources>
