Right mouse button select

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

 am working on implementing a simple context menu into the calendar 
the context menu itself is not a problem but the control by default doesnt select events when clicked on using the right mouse button

i implemented the functionality and it is working but the painting is behind.

i do the following in the ContextMenu event

ActiveView.UnselectAllEvents
HitTest and get the viewevent under mouse
if it is an event ActiveView.SelectViewEvent for the event
Populate

then show the ContextMenu

this is working but the selection rectangles on events do not update (old selections stay visible and the new selection is not) until after the context menu closes

i tried moving the selection code in MouseUp but the same problem

Any idea how to get the screen to refresh the selection rectangles before the context menu shows ?

thanks

Mike
