C# Check box, only check the box not the text

Question

Okay i swear i looked for this on google before posting.

I tried:

C# check box active area C# check box check box not text

and a few others.

But i have a check box on top of a button. I want to be able to click the button even when the mouse is over top the check box text area. I want the use to only be able to click the actual box. But when the mouse is over the check box's text, it should click the button.

Thanks all!

Answer 1

I'm assuming this is in WPF / XAML.

Simply add the checkbox to the button without text. Add the text to the button not the checkbox.

That said, I cannot for the world think why this would be a pleasant user experience and would suggest trying to use a different means of getting the information.

Answer 2

So instead of having the checkboxes over top the button, i just created a seperate window that will show with the three options to choose from upon clicking that button.

But i still think it would be cool/neat to have them on top of the button.
