Public Class ContextMenuService

Inheritance: Object
ContextMenuService

Examples

The following example assigns the same ContextMenu to two buttons and sets the HasDropShadow, Placement, PlacementRectangle, HorizontalOffset, and VerticalOffset properties to set the ContextMenu to different positions for each button.

<StackPanel>
  <StackPanel.Resources>
    <ContextMenu x:Key="myContextMenu">
      <MenuItem Header="Item"/>
    </ContextMenu>
  </StackPanel.Resources>

  <!--Both buttons use the same ContextMenu but use the
    properties on ContextMenuService to position them
    differently.-->
  <Button ContextMenu="{StaticResource myContextMenu}" 
          ContextMenuService.HasDropShadow="False" 
          ContextMenuService.Placement="Relative"
          ContextMenuService.HorizontalOffset="50"
          ContextMenuService.VerticalOffset="-10">
    button 1
  </Button>

  <Button ContextMenu="{StaticResource myContextMenu}" 
          ContextMenuService.HasDropShadow="True"
          ContextMenuService.Placement="Right"
          ContextMenuService.PlacementRectangle="0,0,30,30">
    button 2
  </Button>
</StackPanel>

The following example shows how to use the service to display a ContextMenu on a disabled button. Notice that you set the ShowOnDisabled property on the button that is the parent of the context menu.

<Button Height="30" Content="Disabled Button" IsEnabled="False" 
     ContextMenuService.ShowOnDisabled="True">
  <Button.ContextMenu>
    <ContextMenu>
      <MenuItem Header="Item 1"/>
      <MenuItem Header="Item 2"/>
      <MenuItem Header="Item 3"/>
    </ContextMenu>
  </Button.ContextMenu>
</Button>

Remarks

The ContextMenuService class provides attached properties that can be used to specify the appearance and position of a context menu. Many of the properties in the ContextMenuService class are also defined by the ContextMenu. Sometimes it is more convenient to set the properties by using the ContextMenuService class than by setting the properties on a ContextMenu. For example, you can create a ContextMenu to be shared by multiple elements, but use the ContextMenuService class to specify a different position of the ContextMenu for each element. The following properties are defined by the ContextMenu and ContextMenuService classes. If any of these properties are set on both ContextMenu and the ContextMenuService, the property value from the ContextMenuService is used.

You can also use the ContextMenuService to display menus on disabled items.
