How to make AfterCheck event to trigger when a node's text is clicked in WinForms TreeViewAdv?

Handle MouseDown event

In WinForms TreeViewAdv,  it is possible to get the AfterCheck event triggered when a node's text is clicked instead of the checkbox by handling MouseDown event along with the PointToClient and PointToNode method.

C#

private void treeViewAdv1_MouseDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
    {
        // Get the point where the mouse was left clicked
        Point p = this.treeViewAdv1.PointToClient(Control.MousePosition);

        // Get the node at the left click point
        TreeNodeAdv node = this.treeViewAdv1.PointToNode(p);

        if (node != null)
        {
            // Check if the label was clicked
            if (node.TextAndImageBounds.Contains(p))
            {
                node.Checked = !node.Checked;
            }
        }
    }
}

VB

Private Sub treeViewAdv1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs)
    If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then
        ' Get the point where the mouse was left clicked
        Dim p As Point = Me.treeViewAdv1.PointToClient(Control.MousePosition)

        ' Get the node at the left click point
        Dim node As TreeNodeAdv = Me.treeViewAdv1.PointToNode(p)

        If Not node Is Nothing Then
            ' See if the label was clicked on
            If node.TextAndImageBounds.Contains(p) Then
                node.Checked = Not node.Checked
            End If
        End If
    End If
End Sub
