Passing mouse events up to a control's container

[JezB]

I want to handle events in a container (eg. MouseMove in a Panel). Problem
is: when the panel contains Controls and the mouse moves over that control,
MouseMove is no longer fired in the container. How can I force this?

 

[Charles Law]

In the container, handle the mouse events you want to bubble, and raise
[your own] container events to repeat them up to the container's parent.

Charles, In windows forms there is no event bubbling. You need to catch
mouse events one each control that the contianer contains.

[Charles Law]

I used the word 'bubbling' because that is the effect that is being sought,
not because there is an intrinsic ability to bubble events. The solution is
still the same though: in each container, handle the desired events of the
child control and raise user-defined events in the container to be caught by
the parent.
