WPF StackPanel with Click AND DoubleClick

I need to be able to handle the double click and single click event on the WPF StackPanel. But there is no such thing as the StackPanel's DoubleClick Event. I want to do 2 different operations in these 2 EventHandlers.

Any idea how to do that?

Thank you

The best way is to write your own mouse button handler with a timeout - if the event is fired again within the timeout period, then fire your doubleclick message, otherwise call the single click handler. Here's some sample code (Edit: originally found here):

/// <summary>
/// For double clicks
/// </summary>
public class MouseClickManager {
    private event MouseButtonEventHandler _click;
    private event MouseButtonEventHandler _doubleClick;

    public event MouseButtonEventHandler Click {
        add { _click += value; }
        remove { _click -= value; }
    }

    public event MouseButtonEventHandler DoubleClick {
        add { _doubleClick += value; }
        remove { _doubleClick -= value; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Gets or sets a value indicating whether this <see cref="MouseClickManager"/> is clicked.
    /// </summary>
    /// <value><c>true</c> if clicked; otherwise, <c>false</c>.</value>
    private bool Clicked { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    /// Gets or sets the timeout.
    /// </summary>
    /// <value>The timeout.</value>
    public int DoubleClickTimeout { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    /// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="MouseClickManager"/> class.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="control">The control.</param>
    public MouseClickManager(int doubleClickTimeout) {
        this.Clicked = false;
        this.DoubleClickTimeout = doubleClickTimeout;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Handles the click.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="sender">The sender.</param>
    /// <param name="e">The <see cref="System.Windows.Input.MouseButtonEventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
    public void HandleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
        lock (this) {
            if (this.Clicked) {
                this.Clicked = false;
                OnDoubleClick(sender, e);
            }
            else {
                this.Clicked = true;
                ParameterizedThreadStart threadStart = new ParameterizedThreadStart(ResetThread);
                Thread thread = new Thread(threadStart);
                thread.Start(e);
            }
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Resets the thread.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="state">The state.</param>
    private void ResetThread(object state) {
        Thread.Sleep(this.DoubleClickTimeout);

        lock (this) {
            if (this.Clicked) {
                this.Clicked = false;
                OnClick(this, (MouseButtonEventArgs)state);
            }
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Called when [click].
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="sender">The sender.</param>
    /// <param name="e">The <see cref="System.Windows.Input.MouseButtonEventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
    private void OnClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
        if (_click != null) {
            if (sender is Control) {
                (sender as Control).Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(_click, sender, e);
            }
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Called when [double click].
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="sender">The sender.</param>
    /// <param name="e">The <see cref="System.Windows.Input.MouseButtonEventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
    private void OnDoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
        if (_doubleClick != null) {
            _doubleClick(sender, e);
        }
    }
}

Then, in the control you want to receive the events:

MouseClickManager fMouseManager = new MouseClickManager(200);
fMouseManager.Click += new MouseButtonEventHandler(YourControl_Click); 
fMouseManager.DoubleClick += new MouseButtonEventHandler(YourControl_DoubleClick);
