My question is based on one of the answer to this post: Where is the WPF Numeric UpDown control? answered by Mr. Squirrel.Downy. What i would like to accomplish is a numeric updown control that increases/decreases with a larger amount when the buttons are pressed for a longer time, otherwise the increase/decrease is the normal amount. Also when the max/min is reached the buttons should disable. I have a style based on a Slider which contains 2 buttons of type HoldButton (up/down, derived from RepeatButton) and a readonly TextBlock for the Value. In the HoldButton i have 2 dependency properties for an ICommand. These are ClickAndHoldCommand and ClickCommand which are executed from either the OnPreviewMouseLeftButtonDown() or OnPreviewMouseLeftButtonUp() depending on the length of the mouse button press. In the xaml these are bound to Slider.IncreaseLarge and Slider.IncreaseSmall respectively. How can i disable the up button when the max is reached and disable the down button when the min is reached? The difficulty is that when i for example disable the slider, the up mouse event does not work anymore...
