I would have guessed that the LostMouseCaptureEvent should fire for an object when the mouse button has been held down on that object but the pointer has moved outside its borders and then been released, but this doesn't seem to be the case. When does the LostMouseCaptureEvent fire for an object (for example, the MarkupBorder object)?

I'm trying to implement my own drag & drop functionality for the MarkupLabel, and so far it is working great except for detecting when the mouse has gone outside of and object border and been released (I would like to end the drag & drop at this point).

Thanks.

Hi Oleg,
Do you have any more information on this event? The documentation doesn't help, and I haven't been able to get it to fire. When does it fire/what is this event useful for?

Maybe we need CaptureMouse/ReleaseMouse methods for the markup objects so we can use this event?

Sorry development model in ActiveX still quite cutted. MFC version has also CaptureMouse/ReleaseMouseCapture methods without them LostMouseCaptureEvent is useless. :(

Will be added also. Thanks.

Okay, thanks Oleg. Is this likely to appear in the next version? I have a project due in a couple of months that could benefit from this feature (and some of the others that have been discussed on the MarkupLabel lately).
