c# - How to create a custom double-click event for a Button

Question

I'm developing in C# on the .NET Framework. I already have an event on Button which happens on one click. I also want to have an event on Double Click for the same Button.

How do I create Double click event on Button? I tried with this, but it doesn't work:

this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.StandardDoubleClick, true);
this.button1.DoubleClick += new System.EventHandler(button1_DoubleClick);

private void button1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{            
    MessageBox.Show("You are in the Button.DoubleClick event.");
}

Answer 1

The Button control (assuming you're in a winforms app) does not support double click as a native event. You would need to create your own control, perhaps by inheriting from the framework provided button, and listen for two clicks within the relevant time, before firing your DoubleClick event.
