This is another symptom of the root cause of #6152, which is basically that the mouse drag events are not captured. The swipe does work with touch.

Any official guideline on how to use the RefreshView on windows for users with mice?

In Windows I couldn't able to see the refresh icon on both swiping and dragging with mouse.
Visual studio version - 17.5.0 Preview 1.0.
Any workaround suggestions please?

As of now I had resolved it with a Handler. Not so best but convincing so far now.

 public class CustomRefreshViewHandler : RefreshViewHandler
  {
    public CustomRefreshViewHandler()
    {

    }

    protected override void ConnectHandler(RefreshContainer nativeView)
    {
        if (PlatformView != null)
        {
            PlatformView.ManipulationMode = Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationModes.All;
            PlatformView.ManipulationDelta += PlatformView_ManipulationDelta;
        }

        base.ConnectHandler(nativeView);
    }

    protected override void DisconnectHandler(RefreshContainer nativeView)
    {
        if (PlatformView != null)
        {
            PlatformView.ManipulationDelta -= PlatformView_ManipulationDelta;
        }

        base.DisconnectHandler(nativeView);
    }

    private void PlatformView_ManipulationDelta(object sender, Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Input.ManipulationDeltaRoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        double cumulativeY = e.Cumulative.Translation.Y;
        if (cumulativeY > 100)
        {
            if (!VirtualView.IsRefreshing)
            {
                VirtualView.IsRefreshing = true;
            }
        }
    }
}

From the design guidelines for Windows UI: "RefreshContainer works only with touch, so we recommend that you also have a refresh button available for users who don't have a touch interface. You can position the refresh button at a suitable location in the app, either on a command bar or at a location close to the surface being refreshed."

The control is not designed to work with a mouse pointer; if you're building a desktop application with the intent of using mouse input, you should provide an appropriate refresh mechanism.
