I have a MyButton class that inherits from Button. On this class I have placed several other controls (Labels, Progessbar). The problem with this is that the controls on the Button make it impossible to fire the Button.Click or Button.MouseHover event. How can I achieve it that the controls on the Button are only displayed but are "event transparent": A click/hover on the label and progessbar is the same as if I clicked/hover directly on the Button (including sender and everything). Something like "inheriting the events from the parent".
class MyButton : Button
{
Label foo = new Label();
ProgressBar bar = new ProgessBar();
}
You should derive from UserControl then have the button as a child control, and bubble up the button child's on click event.
This link is probably more than what you need, but it's a good starting point.
UPDATE
As pointed out, you may not be using ASP.NET. So here is another post that talks about different custom user controls, specifically what you're after is a Composite Control
. This is for Windows Forms.
