This is a wrong approach. Instead, you should directly handle a click on the element you want to handle and ignore others.

The question is just the result of anti-OOP and anti-event-oriented thinking, which should be fixed.

If you can understand Routed Events, then will able to figure out the exact control the click is coming from - go through this[^].
