SOLVED: Respond to Context Menu

 

Add Execute event handler.

 

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

 

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

 

 

 

 

try not specify x and y to allow commandbars use cursor coordintes. guess problem in your calculation fo these x and y.

 

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

 

 

 

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...

 

 

 

 

 

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
