Cómo: Colocar un menú contextual personalizado en un control RichTextBox

En este ejemplo se muestra cómo colocar un menú contextual personalizado en un control RichTextBox.

Cuando se implementa un menú contextual personalizado para un control RichTextBox, es responsable del control de la posición del menú contextual. De forma predeterminada, se abre un menú contextual personalizado en el centro del control RichTextBox.

Agregación de una escucha para el evento ContextMenuOpening

Para invalidar el comportamiento de colocación predeterminado, agregue una escucha para el evento ContextMenuOpening. En el ejemplo siguiente se muestra hacer esto mediante programación.

richTextBox.ContextMenuOpening += new ContextMenuEventHandler(richTextBox_ContextMenuOpening);
AddHandler richTextBox.ContextMenuOpening, AddressOf richTextBox_ContextMenuOpening

Implementación de la escucha del evento ContextMenuOpening

En el ejemplo siguiente se muestra una implementación de la escucha de eventos ContextMenuOpening.

// This method is intended to listen for the ContextMenuOpening event from a RichTextBox.
// It will position the custom context menu at the end of the current selection.
void richTextBox_ContextMenuOpening(object sender, ContextMenuEventArgs e)
{
    // Sender must be RichTextBox.
    RichTextBox rtb = sender as RichTextBox;
    if (rtb == null) return;

    ContextMenu contextMenu = rtb.ContextMenu;
    contextMenu.PlacementTarget = rtb;

    // This uses HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset properties to position the menu,
    // relative to the upper left corner of the parent element (RichTextBox in this case).
    contextMenu.Placement = PlacementMode.RelativePoint;

    // Compute horizontal and vertical offsets to place the menu relative to selection end.
    TextPointer position = rtb.Selection.End;

    if (position == null) return;

    Rect positionRect = position.GetCharacterRect(LogicalDirection.Forward);
    contextMenu.HorizontalOffset = positionRect.X;
    contextMenu.VerticalOffset = positionRect.Y;

    // Finally, mark the event has handled.
    contextMenu.IsOpen = true;
    e.Handled = true;
}
' This method is intended to listen for the ContextMenuOpening event from a RichTextBox.
' It will position the custom context menu at the end of the current selection.
Private Sub richTextBox_ContextMenuOpening(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ContextMenuEventArgs)
    ' Sender must be RichTextBox.
    Dim rtb As RichTextBox = TryCast(sender, RichTextBox)
    If rtb Is Nothing Then
        Return
    End If

    Dim contextMenu As ContextMenu = rtb.ContextMenu
    contextMenu.PlacementTarget = rtb

    ' This uses HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset properties to position the menu,
    ' relative to the upper left corner of the parent element (RichTextBox in this case).
    contextMenu.Placement = PlacementMode.RelativePoint

    ' Compute horizontal and vertical offsets to place the menu relative to selection end.
    Dim position As TextPointer = rtb.Selection.End

    If position Is Nothing Then
        Return
    End If

    Dim positionRect As Rect = position.GetCharacterRect(LogicalDirection.Forward)
    contextMenu.HorizontalOffset = positionRect.X
    contextMenu.VerticalOffset = positionRect.Y

    ' Finally, mark the event has handled.
    contextMenu.IsOpen = True
    e.Handled = True
End Sub
