How to handle double-click in WPF when you don't need to handle single-click
This example is useful when you only need to handle double-clicking and don't need to differentiate it from single-clicking, in order to get them both to work on one FrameworkElement (i.e. not a Control), you might try this approach.
XAML:
<Window x:Class="TestDc234.Window1"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300">
    <Grid Margin="10">
        <TextBlock Text="test" MouseDown="TextBlock_MouseDown"/>
    </Grid>
</Window>

Code-Behind:
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Input;

namespace TestDc234
{
    public partial class Window1 : Window
    {
        public Window1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void TextBlock_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
            {
                if (e.ClickCount == 2)
                {
                    MessageBox.Show("you double-clicked");
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
need markup?
