Examples

The following code example demonstrates constructing a shortcut menu and using the Show method. To run the example, paste the following code in a form containing a button named Button1. Ensure all events are associated with their event-handling methods.

// Displays the shortcut menu, offsetting its location 
// from the upper-left corner of Button1 by 20 pixels in each direction. 
void Button1_Click( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
{
   
   //Declare the menu items and the shortcut menu.
   array<MenuItem^>^menuItems = {gcnew MenuItem( "Some Button Info" ),gcnew MenuItem( "Some Other Button Info" ),gcnew MenuItem( "Exit" )};
   System::Windows::Forms::ContextMenu^ buttonMenu = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::ContextMenu( menuItems );
   buttonMenu->Show( Button1, System::Drawing::Point( 20, 20 ) );
}

// Displays the shortcut menu, offsetting its location 
// from the upper-left corner of Button1 by 20 pixels in each direction. 
private void Button1_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{

    //Declare the menu items and the shortcut menu.
    MenuItem[] menuItems = new MenuItem[]{new MenuItem("Some Button Info"), 
        new MenuItem("Some Other Button Info"), new MenuItem("Exit")};

    ContextMenu buttonMenu = new ContextMenu(menuItems);
    buttonMenu.Show(Button1, new System.Drawing.Point(20, 20));
}

' Displays the shortcut menu, offsetting its location 
' from the upper-left corner of Button1 by 20 pixels in each direction. 
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

    'Declare the menu items and the shortcut menu.
    Dim menuItems() As MenuItem = New MenuItem() _
        {New MenuItem("Some Button Info"), _
        New MenuItem("Some Other Button Info"), _
        New MenuItem("Exit")}

    Dim buttonMenu As New ContextMenu(menuItems)
    buttonMenu.Show(Button1, New System.Drawing.Point(20, 20))
End Sub

Remarks

Typically, a ContextMenu is displayed when the user clicks the right mouse button on a control or area of the form that the ContextMenu is bound to. You can use this method to manually display the shortcut menu at a specific location and bind it with a specific control. This method does not return until the menu is dismissed.
