I wanted to implement a context menu in a report control, but can't seem to grab the rbuttondown or wm_contextmenu. I tried the reportcontrol sample, but there is no right-click menu there, either.

any ideas? Thanks!

Hi;

Try this in parent/owner of report control:

ON_NOTIFY(NM_RCLICK, 0, OnReportItemRClick)

void CStateViewEx::OnReportItemRClick(NMHDR * pNotifyStruct, LRESULT* /*result*/)
{
    XTP_NM_REPORTRECORDITEM* pItemNotify = (XTP_NM_REPORTRECORDITEM*) pNotifyStruct;
    if (_pGrid->GetRows()->GetCount()==0)
        return;
    CMenu menu;
    VERIFY(menu.LoadMenu(IDR_STATEREPORTCONTROL_POPUP));
    // track menu
    GetCommandBars()->TrackPopupMenuEx(menu.GetSubMenu(0), TPM_LEFTALIGN |TPM_RIGHTBUTTON, pItemNotify->pt.x, pItemNotify->pt.y, this, NULL);
}

Cool. that makes the menu appear, but it doesn't respond to the WM_COMMAND. Any idea who might be grabbing that? I put a ON_COMMAND() handler for the menu choice.

thanks!

Hi;

GetCommandBars()->TrackPopupMenuEx(menu.GetSubMenu(0), TPM_LEFTALIGN |TPM_RIGHTBUTTON, pItemNotify->pt.x, pItemNotify->pt.y, this, NULL);

in above statement this (the parent/owner of the report control receives the command. So you should implement the command handler in this class. If you do not want this, just replace this by a pointer to your desired destination window.

In our project, were command routing is a complete mess, I have found this to work flawlessly:

GetCommandBars()->TrackPopupMenuEx(menu.GetSubMenu(0), TPM_LEFTALIGN |TPM_RIGHTBUTTON, pItemNotify->pt.x, pItemNotify->pt.y, this, 0, GetOwner());

Where the owner is the main frame. E.g. m_pane.SetOwner(this).
