[QUESTION] Commandbars Contextmenu

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

Is it possible to close contextmenu in code? I'm asking this to solve my problem:

When holding mouse down on a controlbutton (I'm using ExecuteOnPressInterval option) and moving mouse away from this button and mouse is released over something else besides that button, I would need to close the Contextmenu in code, so user notices he/she doesn't have his/her mouse on the button anymore and current process stops.

See attached test project to see what I'm trying to accomplish uploads/3701/TestExcutePress.zip

Thanks a lot in advance

	I've thought of a different approach, but I'm not sure it meets all of your requirements. Does this do what you need? uploads/2676/ExecuteOnMouseHoverOnly.zip

	Hi Jason, Thanks for reply There seems to be something missing... What does DismissCommandBar do ? Maybe I didn't explain properly Yellow "led" means normal / starting point Mousedown on controlbutton 'test' > Green 'led' MouseUp on controlbutton > Yellow 'led' (back to normal) Now comes the tricky part 4. Same as above 1 + 2 5. MouseUp somewhere else (except on pushed controlbutton) should return to normal (Yellow 'led' Hope I explained it properly Thanks again

	I see what you need now, but I haven't had much luck getting the code to work. It seems that all of the CommandBar events that could be useful (ControlSelected, TrackingModeChanged) are fired before Execute is fired, which makes things difficult. You could add a Timer control and check if Not (LeftButtonDown Or CommandBar.Visible), then call CommandBar.ClosePopups and reset the icon, but it is an ugly hack IMHO. I will try a few more things and get back to you.
