HI Guys !!!! i need a line control which supports click event.plz suggest me some link aor preferably give me the ocx

draw a picturebox inside your activex control... then perhaps you may set the control's background to transparent...

and then, change the size of the picture box to how thin yo want... then on it's click event, raise the "click event" for the user control.

...i assume you know how to program activex controls already, okay? let us know if you need more.

Been busy trying to take a second degree <--it's not working out...

Line control is not hard to make, except maybe for DrawMode property, but Click Event will have to take some modifications.

vbgen's idea can work in cases when Line1.x1=Line1.x2 or Line1.y1=Line1.y2, bu the problem comes when user wants to draw a line which is not horizontal or vertical, but bias. So, when clicked anywhere inside rectangle it will raise an UserControl_Click Event (not just on line).

In this case you would have to check if it is clicked on line, or near it (lets say 1 pixel as tolerancy), which also shouldnt be hard.

But, what intrigues me is, how can be made line control which will have aperiance on the form in design mode same as microsoft; line control has??

If you find the answer helpful, please mark this topic as solved.

MS line control is a windowless control. I think the clickable line control will have to be windowless as well. Though a windowless control means that it cannot come above its windowed siblings in Zorder.

Further, you will need to handle HitTest event of the UserControl to convey if the mouse is hitting the "line" area or elsewhere, so that the mouse events can get propogated to other controls that are covered by the smallest bounding rectangle of our line control.
