Hi,
 
Did you create your menu in code or did you just dropped a Commandbars control and let CB create the menu for you?
 
I did the last option and found there are a couple of strange things happening see my post: https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11986

Hi,

Yes, you can. I have a mainmenu with items, same items can be shown as toolbar and/or context menu.  
 
Just call:
CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls(ID_POPUP_CONTROL).CommandBar.ShowPopup
 
for showing contextmenu
 
Just call:
CommandBarsViewEditor.ActiveMenuBar.Controls(ID_POPUP_CONTROL).CommandBar.SetTearOffPopup "Caption of toolbar", SOME_ID, 500
           
for possibility to tearoff toolbar

Hello All,
 
I try the Popup Menu it works fine as Popup menu up in the active menu bar, but not as Context Menu, Still behave the same .... !!!
 
Funny, isn't it ....
 
Ideas ......
 
/Edit:
 
Thanks Aaron they both works fine ...
CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls(1).CommandBar.ShowPopup()
&
CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls(1).CommandBar.SetTearOffPopup("Tree Options", 20000, 500)
 
It is strange that the Context Menu is not behaving the same !!!
 
Not a problem as long as It surve the purpose, right ...
 
Thanks again Aaron.

Hi,
 
I justed tested this and it works with STANDARD VB MENU  So I expect... it should be working when creating a menu in code.

Hi,
 
Yes it should be. Do you create contextmenu in code as well? Or create it when necessary? If you do, try to loop Commandbar.Controls collection and check if there are any...

Hi,
 
You can also copy buttons into your popmenu and also check if they exist. I have only VB code to show you but maybe you understand it anyway.
 
Dim Control As CommandBarControl
Dim ContextControl As CommandBarControl
Dim Popup As CommandBar
        Set Control = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.FindControl(, ID_POPUPCONTROL)
        If Control Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
        Set Popup = CommandBars.Add("Popup", xtpBarPopup)
        For Each ContextControl In Control.CommandBar.Controls
            ContextControl.Copy Popup
        Next
        Popup.ShowPopup
