Visual C# Form right click button


I am trying to make a minesweeper type game in visual c# and I want to have different things happen when I right click and left click a button, how do I do this?

I have tried this code but it only registers left clicks:

    private void button1_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Button == System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Left)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Left");
        }
        if (e.Button == System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Right");
        }

    }

Solution

  • You will have to use the MouseUp or MouseDown event instead of the Click event to capture right click.
