Your tags say: "C" and "WPF". No, it cannot be so. :-)

OK, what's your "uneasy" solution? Maybe this is what you need... No, just go ahead and implement it according to your required behavior. There is no shortcuts here...

You can use intersectswith to find out if a user control intersects another: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.rect.intersectswith.aspx[^]
