I have an panel containing an image which creates scrollbars if the
image is too large for the panel.  MouseWheel events automatically
scroll the scroll-bars.  How do I intercept the mouse-wheel and make it
perform another function?  I added a delegate mousewheel handler, but
now I get both events (panel scroll plus intended new function).  I want
to switch between functions based on a flag.

I've already sub-classed the panel to gain access to other properties,
should I simply over-ride the mousewheel event and call the base event
based on a flag setting?   Seems kindof the hard way....

PS.  I also just noticed I never set the autoscroll property to true,
but the autoscrollbar behaviour seems to be enabled when I set the
autoscrollminsize property.  Is this supposed to happen or did I just
get lucky and my code might not always work.

PPS.  Why doesn't MouseWheel event show up in the designer?  I had to
type the whole thing in, delegate declaration and all.

Hello bern11,

Well, this seems kind of the right way to me though :-) Hard way? Well,
you're doing something non-standard, so you first have to find a way to
get rid of the standard behaviour, and stealing away the event is often a
good way of doing that.

Have a look at Reflector - it shows you that the setter for the
AutoScrollMinSize property looks like this:

     set
     {
         if (value != this.userAutoScrollMinSize)
         {
             this.userAutoScrollMinSize = value;
             this.AutoScroll = true;
             base.PerformLayout();
         }
     }

So, it definitely looks like the programmer wanted AutoScroll to be set to
true in this case.

Because it's marked [Browsable(false)] on the Control (once more, see
Reflector). Oh, why did they do that? I don't know. Maybe it's a mistake,
or they had a genuine reason not to expose the event - I couldn't find
much useful info about this.
