I am using Surface 2.0 SDK and my application uses dynamically created custom controls which consist of a ScatterViewItem which holds a Grid with a Menu inside each column.
When initiating a drag&drop motion on any area inside the ScatterViewItem including the Grid, or the margins around the Menu, the ScatterViewItem is being dragged along nicely together with its contents.
However, when trying to initiate such a motion anywhere inside the Menu control, nothing happens. It seems like the necessary events are being swallowed by it.
I have tried extending the Menu class to create a custom control and use a RoutedEvent to handle captured mouse clicks within the ScatterViewItem, but can't quite find a way to seamlessly handle drag events and pass them on to the parent ScatterViewItem
Can anyone share some knowledge on how to implement this?
