How to get a right click mouse event Changing EventArgs to MouseEventArgs causes an error in Form1Designer

Question

I have a method to detect the left click event that visual studio made by double clicking on the form   private void pictureBox1 Click object sender  EventArgs e        MessageBox Show  Left click        I want to have a right-click event by right-clicking on the same object   I read online that you can use this switch   private void pictureBox1 Click object sender  EventArgs e        if  e Button    System Windows Forms MouseButtons Right  MessageBox Show  Right click         if  e Button    System Windows Forms MouseButtons Left  MessageBox Show  Left click         The trouble is that when I do e Button it has has yields an error error      System EventArgs does not contain a definition for Button       So I fix this by changing the EventArgs e to MouseEventArgs e  But then there is a new error in Form1Designer where the event line is   this pictureBox1 Click    new System EventHandler this pictureBox1 Click     The error says      No overload for pictureBox1 Click matches delegate System EventHandler   How do I fix this   Thanks for reading

You need MouseClick instead of Click event handler  reference   switch  e Button         case MouseButtons Left         Left click     break       case MouseButtons Right         Right click     break

For me neither the MouseClick or Click event worked  because the events  simply  are not called when you right click  The quick way to do it is    private void button1 MouseUp object sender  MouseEventArgs e             if  e Button    MouseButtons Right                          do something here                   else  left or middle click                         do something here                You can modify that to do exactly what you want depended on the arguments  values   WARNING  There is one catch with only using the mouse up event  if you mousedown on the control and then you move the cursor out of the control to release it  you still get the event fired  In order to avoid that  you should also make sure that the mouse up occurs within the control in the event handler  Checking whether the mouse cursor coordinates are within the control s rectangle before you check the buttons will do it properly

You should introduce a cast inside the click event handler  MouseEventArgs me    MouseEventArgs  e
