Re: Close a modal form on mouseclick outside .... MaWeRic14-Jul-05 4:18 MaWeRic 14-Jul-05 4:18  Welll .... This is the case .. I have a textbox and when I hit right-button over it i want to show a calendar. The user must select a date or move outside calendar to close form with calendar. It should work as a normal DatePick-control. On that control, as you know, you can either select or click outside to close calendar. I want to change click to mouseleave-function on my control. The txtbox is a usercontrol .... I have a form in that usercontrol wich shows the calendar at a position I choose. Sooo? what do you think? //Maw Re: Close a modal form on mouseclick outside ....

I want to change click to mouseleave-function on my control. If someone who isn't that good with a mouse uses your control, they're going to get very frustrated because your closing a control that they are having problems keeping a mouse pointer in. Changing this behavior is not recommended. I am one of those people who likes to move a mouse pointer out of the way so I can see an entire control before I click on something.

RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome Philosophy: UserControl to UserControl Sled Dog13-Jul-05 2:43 Sled Dog 13-Jul-05 2:43  Anyone Interested... Is there a specific methodology or "best practice" for having 2 of your user controls on a single web page communicate information. For example, I have Control A which has printing press information on it and Control B which has press materials information on it. I suppose I could expose many of the press properties Public Shared, however, I don't feel that this is elegant as object oriented programming goes. Would any one care to suggest some ideas that work for your development practices? Thank you.
