TGrid OnMouseLeave Event |
Tue, Sep 6 2016 10:32 PM | Permanent Link |
kentersoft | TGrid's OnMouseLeave event is fire at Mouse Leave Rows area , can the area include Grid Header and ScrollBar area.
I want to use Grid's OnMouseLeave to auto Hide a child form which contains the Grid, but when want to use scrollbar to scroll grid, OnMouseLeave is fire, then grid hide. thanks! |

This probably won't be possible without a re-design of the grid. The "rows" area is considered the client area of the grid, whereas the headers and scrollbars reside in the "non-client" area of the grid. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Indeed, if we could just have it work for TPanel (or the appropriate parent of them all) then it would be quite workable. A lot of things on the web work on the basis that you mouse over the item represented by a panel or something and actions you can take become visible (fade in), or it changes colour etc. When the panel contains other components, they can steal the events, and that stops this working (I end up with actions still enabled, or not showing at all). It has been discussed before, but I'm approaching this being critical for me, and so hope to work something out that will work for me. Even a basic "mouse moved to X,Y" would be enough, or as I say just basing it on a panel would be good. -- Matthew Jones |

You can do what you say with a TBasicPanel, no problem. But, this is a *very* complex grid control that involves thousands of lines of code. It's not something that is amenable to a simple "hey, did the mouse enter" this UI element. There are hundreds of UI elements in a grid control, and *all* of them need to know about, and react to, mouse events. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Then you can put something complex like the grid on a panel. I realise that's a bit selfish though. 8-) -- Matthew Jones |

Matthew Jones | I worked out a way for me to achieve my mouse enter/leave desires in
the current version. I did a counter for the mouse enter/leave in complex situations, where you have a single event handler for a panel and the components on the panel (some of which may touch the edges etc). This is unreliable, in that I can move the mouse over and end up with an enter count of anywhere from 3 to -1 on leaving the area. For any component, it's fine, but for compound groups like this, much less so. However, that doesn't matter, because what IS reliable for this purpose, is the MouseMove event. Indeed it is perfect, because it is not counted. So on the event, I can just de-select any other panel in the display, and select the one the mouse is over, making the extra tools visible as it goes. It seems undefeatable at this point in time. -- Matthew Jones |
