DataGridView.CellMouseLeave Event

.NET Framework 2.0

Note: This event is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

Occurs when the mouse pointer leaves a cell.

Namespace: System.Windows.Forms
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in system.windows.forms.dll)

C#
C++
VB
Copy 
public event DataGridViewCellEventHandler CellMouseLeave
J#
Copy 
/** @event */
public void add_CellMouseLeave (DataGridViewCellEventHandler value)

/** @event */
public void remove_CellMouseLeave (DataGridViewCellEventHandler value)
JScript
Copy 
JScript supports the use of events, but not the declaration of new ones.

For more information about handling events, see Consuming Events.

The following code example shows a CellMouseLeave event handler in a Tic-Tac-Toe game implementation that uses image columns in a DataGridView control. The event handler resets the cursor and ToolTip, which are set in a CellMouseEnter event handler.

This code is part of a larger example shown in How to: Work with Image Columns in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.

C#
VB
Copy 
private void dataGridView1_CellMouseEnter(object sender,
    DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    Bitmap markingUnderMouse = (Bitmap)dataGridView1.
           Rows[e.RowIndex].
           Cells[e.ColumnIndex].Value;

    if (markingUnderMouse == blank)
    {
        dataGridView1.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
    }
    else if (markingUnderMouse == o || markingUnderMouse == x)
    {
        dataGridView1.Cursor = Cursors.No;
        ToolTip(e, true);
    }
}

private void ToolTip(DataGridViewCellEventArgs e, bool showTip)
{
    DataGridViewImageCell cell = (DataGridViewImageCell)
        dataGridView1
        .Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex];
    DataGridViewImageColumn imageColumn =
        (DataGridViewImageColumn)
        dataGridView1.Columns[cell.ColumnIndex];

    if (showTip) cell.ToolTipText = imageColumn.Description;
    else { cell.ToolTipText = String.Empty; }
}

private void dataGridView1_CellMouseLeave(object sender,
    DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    ToolTip(e, false);
    dataGridView1.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
}
