Cheers for your response. As I said I'm fairly new to this and I wasn't aware this was an option. I don't suppose you have a link to any good resources/tutorials on doing this so that I can read up on it?

I'm fairly new to coding and was just trying to bodge it together quickly before figuring out the proper way to do it haha. Might sound a bit silly but it's the way I learn best. Thanks for your help I'll give that a go :)

I'll add a bit more of the code. The compositetransform is created along with one of the xaml components.

public void NewButton_Click(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.RoutedEventArgs e)
{

Canvas newcanvas = new Canvas();
CompositeTransform mv = new CompositeTransform();
AppGrid.Children.Add(newcanvas);

Ellipse Holder = new Ellipse();
Holder.ManipulationDelta += new ManipulationDeltaEventHandler(HolderManipulationDelta);

}

private void HolderManipulationDelta(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationDeltaRoutedEventArgs e){ //code here}

This code compiles, but I need to add the third parameter into the holdermanipulationdelta event, and when i do that i get the error message above.

By default there is no third parameter and when i try and add one I get the error message: "No overload for 'HolderManipulationDelta' matches delegate 'Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationDeltaEventHandler'" I'm looking for a way to add the third parameter in.

Okay so here's the deal. I have an event that generates a number of xaml components on the fly. One of these xaml components also has some events hooked up to it. In order to do this I am using the following line of code

Holder.ManipulationDelta += new ManipulationDeltaEventHandler(HolderManipulationDelta);

This is then handled with

private void HolderManipulationDelta(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationDeltaRoutedEventArgs e) {//code here }

What I need is to be able to pass in an extra parameter in the event such as...

private void HolderManipulationDelta(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationDeltaRoutedEventArgs e, CompositeTransform mv) {//code here }

However this seems to be invalid. I've tried googling and got some stuff on delegates etc but I cant get my head around it. Can anyone help me out?
