the WPF Popup control is nice, but somewhat limited in my opinion. is there a way to "drag" a popup around when it is opened (like with the DragMove() method of windows)?
can this be done without big problems or do i have to write a substitute for the popup class myself? thanks
There is no DragMove for PopUp. Just a small work around, there is lot of improvements you can add to this.
<Popup x:Name="pop" IsOpen="True" Height="200" Placement="AbsolutePoint" Width="200">
<Rectangle Stretch="Fill" Fill="Red"/>
</Popup>
In the code behind , add this mousemove event
pop.MouseMove += new MouseEventHandler(pop_MouseMove);
void pop_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
{
pop.PlacementRectangle = new Rect(new Point(e.GetPosition(this).X,
e.GetPosition(this).Y),new Point(200,200));
}
}
