WPF Web浏览器控件禁用删除

Question

Is there a way to disable dropping items like notepad, word etc on to a System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser control in WPF. I have tried various options like AllowDrop="False" - Does not work. Tried to catch events like Drop, PreviewDrop, DragLeave, PreviewDragLeave, PreviewDragOver, PreviewDragEnter - None of these events fire when I drop items on the WebBrowser control.

Answer 1

Using the constructor or Xaml to create the following method will stop the drag from changing the webbrowsers current state:

private void webBrowser_Navigating(object sender, NavigatingCancelEventArgs e)
{
    // The WebBrowser control is checking the Uri 
    if (e.Uri.ToString() != "Place your url string here") //ex: "http://stackoverflow.com"
    {
        // Uri is not the same so it cancels the process
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}

Answer 2

As you mentioned, none of the Drop event are fired, and it seems like the native browser control is very limited which leaves you with two possibilities:

• Either user another browser control like wpfchromium ,

• Or define a transparent popup in top of the browser and handle the drop even within it

:

<WebBrowser Height="300" Width="300" x:Name="wbBrowser"/>
    <Popup  Opacity="1" AllowsTransparency="True" IsOpen="True" Placement="Center" 
     PlacementTarget="{Binding ElementName=wbBrowser}" >
        <Border  Background="Black" Opacity="0.01" 
         Width="300" Height="300">
        </Border>
    </Popup>

This solution ain't pretty at all and needs also more logic to handle when the popup's parent control moves ..
