I would like to disable the normal expand/collapse behavior when doubleclicking on a treeview node. Is this possible?

If not, if I add code to the Doubleclicked event handler to "take over" the expand/collapse state, would this happen before or after the node expands/collapses "under the hood"?

If it's a treeview, then take a look to ItemExpanding event. Returning 1 prevents treeview from expanding.

And of course you do have also itemcollapsing event...

Yes, that is a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, it seems to be in effect not just for doubleclick, but for single clicking on the node's negative sign - not sure exactly what that is called, but the box to the left of the node's label that normally allows you to expand/collapse that node. For my purposes, I need to allow collapsing that way but not by doubleclicking. There isn't that context passed in to the event, but maybe I can figure it out somehow.

What you should think is what is the difference between clicked and doubleclicked event. A single click will call only clicked event. But I believe that a doubleclick will call clicked and then doubleclicked event. So I'm not sure what you have in mind is possible.

Hi Troy;

  Are you asking about doing this on a TreeView Control or a TreeView DataWindow?

Regards ... Chris

Put code in the SelectionChanging event of the treeview in order to determine how to proceed, of IF you wish to proceed!
