I’ve created a custom rollover modifier, the aim being it only moves when the mouse is down. Pretty simple, here’s the code I have:
class Histogram2DSlicer : RolloverModifier
{
public Histogram2DSlicer() : base()
{
ReceiveHandledEvents = true;
}
public override void OnModifierMouseMove(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.MouseButtons);
if (e.MouseButtons == MouseButtons.Left)
{
base.OnModifierMouseMove(e);
}
}
}
However, the ModifierMouseArgs e.MouseButtons is “None” at all times, is this a bug or do the Modifiers not receive button events?

Hi,
So your code is called, but e.MouseButtons is always None?
In that case I would suggest also overriding OnModifierMouseDown and storing the result of e.MouseButtons, for use later in the MouseMove event.
Does that help?

Yeah, that workaround works, didn’t think of that. I’m also getting another problem though, the e.MousePoint.X is always 0… Y seems to function fine. Also, it woks fine in the OnModifierMouseDown.
class Histogram2DSlicer : ChartModifierBase
{
private MouseButtons mouseButtons = MouseButtons.None;
public override void OnModifierMouseDown(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
base.OnModifierMouseDown(e);
mouseButtons = e.MouseButtons;
}
public override void OnModifierMouseUp(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
base.OnModifierMouseUp(e);
mouseButtons = MouseButtons.None;
}
public override void OnMasterMouseLeave(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
base.OnMasterMouseLeave(e);
//in case mouse leaves with button down, releases then returns
mouseButtons = MouseButtons.None;
}
public override void OnModifierMouseMove(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
if (mouseButtons == MouseButtons.Left)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.MousePoint.X + ", " + e.MousePoint.Y);
base.OnModifierMouseMove(e);
}
}
}
Tested on another surface (mountain series) and the X value was reported fine. Here’s the code for the non working graph:
<s:SciChartSurface x:Name="sciChart"

Edit notes: Replaced custom annothation with s:VerticalLineAnnotation. Didn’t fix.

I’m very surprised to hear e.MousePoint.X is always zero, because all our modifiers depend on this! Maybe share some more code?
I tested it on another surface and it works fine. I wonder if its because I’m using a FastHeatMapRenderableSeries?- I added the xaml code for the problem chart
- Aha! It was my other custom monitor (RubberBandYZoomModifier), I removed that and everything works.

I was thinking about what you said, that all the modifiers use this so they must all be broken. So how does the zoom modifying work then? I knew that used x and y position.
The problem was the code I’d copied from here:
https://www.scichart.com/questions/question/rubberbandxyzoommodifier-zoom-in-y-axis-only
That’ll teach me not to actually read through and figure out how it works. Because at a glance the problem is obvious! I’m assuming everything will work fine provided this is the last modifier added:
class RubberBandYZoomModifier : RubberBandXyZoomModifier
{
// Create a class which inherits RubberBandXyZoomModifier and override ...
public override void OnModifierMouseDown(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
Rect cb = this.ModifierSurface.GetBoundsRelativeTo(this.ModifierSurface);
ModifierMouseArgs mm = e;
mm.MousePoint = new Point(cb.Right, e.MousePoint.Y);
base.OnModifierMouseDown(mm);
}
public override void OnModifierMouseUp(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
ModifierMouseArgs mm = e;
mm.MousePoint = new Point(0, e.MousePoint.Y);
base.OnModifierMouseUp(mm);
}
public override void OnModifierMouseMove(ModifierMouseArgs e)
{
Rect cb = this.ModifierSurface.GetBoundsRelativeTo(this.ModifierSurface);
ModifierMouseArgs mm = e;
mm.MousePoint = new Point(cb.Left, e.MousePoint.Y);
base.OnModifierMouseMove(mm);
}
}

- Good point. The ModifierMouseArgs is shared across all the modifiers (passed to each in turn until handled). It might be better practice here to create new ModifierMouseArgs passing in all arguments to the constructor and passing that to the base. Well done for figuring it out!
