.net - Pass Custom Event Arg After User Clicks A Context Menu's Toolstrip Item?
Mar 28, 2012
I've got a dynamically filled datagrid view. When a user right clicks a cell in the datagridview, it opens a context menu, located by that cell. The context menu has two choices: A and B. I want to set the value of the cell to A if they pick A, and B if they pick B.I would like to pass the relevant cell as a field in the event args passed to ContextMenu's ToolStripItem.click. So the handler for ToolStripItem A's click event would read the relevant cell from the event args and set it to A , like this...
Private Sub A_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Customized System.EventArgs) Handles A.Click
e.relevantCell.Value=A
End Sub
how to pass a custom event arg. Or if there is some easier way to do this? I can't just use the X and Y coordinates, because the context menu/mouse won't necessary by over the relevant cell.

I add a button to a form each time the user clicks a menu option as:
[Code]....
This draws a small blue line at the bottom of the button to show it is highlighted. Just like the mouseoverbackcolor property on a button except this will draw the line. It works fine until you slide the mouse very fast between the buttons. It is as if the mouseleave event doesnt always fire.

Is there another way to add a Context Menu to a ToolStrip other than using the MouseDown Event? I want to use it to let people select to either show text labels on buttons in the ToolStrip or turn them off.

I have a ListView with the Activation property with HotTracking. There appears to be about a 2 second delay between when the user clicks the item and the event fires. Is there a way to get the event to fire immediately upon the user click?

VB express 2008 .net 3.5 or .net 4.0 VB express 2010?I have written application to convert RTF to HTML. The main Purpose of the application is to copy VS code to the clipboard and covert it then put it back into the clipboard as a HTML Document so that it can be pasted into a HTML document such as Windows Live Mail. I found that code copied and pasted is spaced out in in the wrong positions.
The applications works perfect with no bugs so far. I then asked Myself how to go about doing the copy with the least amount of operator interaction. So I added an Icon to the Icon Tray with a right click menu to use to convert once the Rich Text Format was copied to the clipboard. This works fine except you have Five steps, Select the text, Copy to clipboard, Right Click the icon, Select the Converter and Paste. The normal is three steps.
To this the best solution is to add a context menu item to the active form such as the RTF editor or window. So that when you select the Rich Text to copy and right click on the form to bring up that menu then to Just Select the menu Item such as "Copy RT and Convert" I searched and found about 544000 Items and tried to restrict down to no avail. I read until I finally gave up. I did not find any code examples of this. Almost every thing I found related to the web or some other explicit document like Excel and not to the Various windows that could be active with RT in it.
how do you add a context menu item to the context menu of an active rich text format window such as WordPad or VB?I have test in my application that tests to see if it is a RTF in the clipboard so if it is not the converter does nothing.

I want to have a custom context menu. I know how to set it, and have basic commands like copy paste cut back forward stop etc, but I want to have custom right click options when clicking a link, and custom options when clicking an image like having the option to save the image or copy it. How would I achieve this?

how to delete a item from the context menu.. i can add a item with this code:
Private Sub Button7_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button7.Click
ContextMenuStrip4.Items.Add("delete file")
End Sub
no problem there. and to delete this item, i figured since it is the 4th item in the contextmenu (and i can't type the "delete file" either w/o error) it would delete it by index, with this code:
Private Sub Button8_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button8.Click
ContextMenuStrip4.Items.Remove(3)
End Sub
the (3) is giving me a error "value of type 'interger' cannot be converted to 'system.windows.forms.toolstripmenu'".. i think that means that the context menu does not support indexing.

I have a text box field for which I want to use a couple of custom commands accessible via a context menu. I can add my custom context menu to my text box, but then I lose the standard windows ones (i.e. Undo, copy, paste, etc).
What I really want is a context menu with both my custom options and the standard windows options. I want that to take place only within my application (i.e. not like a shell extension).

I want to add a context menu to a datagrid in VB2008 and I need to find out which menu item the user selected.
I don't want to use the ContextMenuStrip that's available in the toolbox since it doesn't allow for dynamic placement depending on what row is active in the grid (I haven't found a Top and Left property in the ContextMenuStrip)
Here's what I've got so far, I'm aware of the fact that the MsgBox uses a non-existing property, it is meant to show my intention.
Given the available properties in the ContextMenu object, I would think that there would be something like a SelectedItemCaption property but a search of the object tree yields no results.
dim grdContextMenu as ContextMenu
grdContextMenu = New ContextMenu
grdContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Insert")

I have a context menu strip (named cmnuRtxtIT) that pops up by right clicking on top of a rich text box in a VB 2008 WinForms application. Context menu strip cmnuRtxtIT has one item named ToolStripMenuInsertFld. This last one has one dropdown item named oolStripComboBoxFlds which is a ToolStripComboBox type. I do the following in the form's Load event to bind ToolStripComboBoxFldsto an Sql database:
Dim dt As New DataTable
Dim dta As New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT pkID, txtFlds FROM ApplicationFields", goConn)
dta.Fill(dt)

Visual Studio 2005. Is there a way to determine which menu item is hi-lited in a ContextMenuStrip?
For example: I associate ContextMenuStrip1 with TextBox1.ContextMenuStrip1 contains 5 items with names:
Item1ToolStripMenuItem
Item2ToolStripMenuItem
Item3ToolStripMenuItem
Item4ToolStripMenuItem
Item5ToolStripMenuItem
A sub-menu is created with Item3ToolStripMenuItem that contains 5 items with names:
Item3aToolStripMenuItem
Item3bToolStripMenuItem
Item3cToolStripMenuItem
Item3dToolStripMenuItem
Item3eToolStripMenuItem
As the menu is navigated is there a way for the program to know which of the 10 menu items is hi-lited before a click event occurs?

I have a tool strip menu item who's collection is filled from a subroutine that loads all available com ports on the computer at for load. I know how to generate a click event for menu items that are filled, but not if they haven't been filled already. I guess it doesn't need to be a click event. It just needs to do something that I can get the .text and use it to configure a serial port.

I have a ContextMenuStrip click event. I was hoping to use this whenever a user clicked onto the ContextMenuStrip or one of its subitems. I have noticed that it does not fire when the user clicks on the sub items. Is there another click event that includes both the main menu And its sub items. Note that I also have added individual events to the individual menu items and sub items to capture specific code for these items. As such, I already know that I can use these events and call my desired code snippet in each of these if I have to. However I was wondering if there was another general click event that captures all the items (main + sub).
Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ContextMenuStrip1.Click
'Some code here

Using VB 2010 Express, I will try to explain what I want to achieve:1. The user installs my program.2. In an Explorer window (Vista/Win7) the user will right click any file.3. The program checks if there is an item called "MyApp" in the context menu (i.e. the menu with for instance the "Open with..." item). If not, then create the "MyApp" item which launches "TheRealApp.exe" that the user installed. Place the item after the "Print" item.

There is a response to this question using C# - I am looking for a VB answer and the C# code is too deep for me. I have a custom user control and I have a toolstrip on it. I have certain default buttons on the toolstrip, but I want the user to be able to add additional buttons at design time. I exposed the Toolstrip.Items collection in a public property. I can open the collections editor in design time, but I cannot edit the collection.
