Insert A New Right Click Context Menu Item To The Existing Right Click Context Menu For The Active Window?
May 15, 2010VB 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.

Context Menu Strip - Form Kept Showing Up Repeatedly
Dec 9, 2010Background Story: My program contains a form and 3 buttons (Add New, Delete, Edit...etc), and it works perfectly. Recently, I decided to add menuStrip, since it helps end-user to work faster. So, I put the menu strip coding.
However.....Sometimes, it works normally. But sometimes it works very strange.
Strange 1. When I chose the "Add New" item in the menu, the Add New Form will be showing up, and then I clicked on the Cancel button in the Add New Form. The Form kept showing up repeatedly. But sometimes, it works normally. (Note: Add New Form's Cancel button contains one line simply coding, it's "me.close")
Strange 2. When I chose "Delete" item in the menu, the MsgBox showing up (since I coded it and it's a warning message to end-users), but the MenuStrip KEPT showing up, so the MenuStrip overlapping the MsgBox. (I expected the MenuStrip disappear in this situation)
Is some codings I have done incorrectly?
Here below is the coding:

Jan 19, 2012As you can see from the screen shot I have managed to get MDI Parents / Child forms working, and managed there to be a menu option on the Parent form that displays all the Child forms opened at the time. What I was wondering, and as of yet through research haven't discovered, is there a way when the list of windows is created, if a user highlights any child in the list it opens a sub-menu from its name (eg. Rename Window, Center Window, etc).

View 12 RepliesWhen Left Clicking Notify Icon On System Tray For Context Menu, Blank Form Shows In Taskbar?
Jul 3, 2010Simply saying I've added an Notify Icon to my project and then added context menu showing up when the left mouse button is pressed. The problem is that with the context menu some blank form is showing in the taskbar. There is no such form within the project.Does anyone know why it may be happening or how to get rid of the effect? I might add that I have other context menu attached for mouse right click button and it works fine, no blank forms and such showing on the taskbar it's just the left mouse button that works that way.Here is the code that I am using to show the menu:(the visible state to false is necessary for the other menus not to pop up with the one i want... unless anyone knows better method)

Forms :: Enable/Disable MDI Parent Menu From Child Form?
Jan 5, 2012I'm writing an MDI app in vb.net vs2010. The MDI form has the default MDIMenustrip menu with several menu items. Each has some subitems. None of the child forms have a menustrip defined. I thought it would be easy to call a public subroutine in the MDI that would disable or enable the MDIMenustrip items. If I execute the routine from the MDI form, the menu items disable/enable just fine. THe problem I have is when I call the routine from a child form. How can I control the MDI menu from a child form?

View 10 RepliesContext Menu Text Box?
Feb 2, 2009I have an application that is simply an icon that sits in the system tray, with a context menu that opens upon right-clicking. One of the options in the menu is a text box where the user can enter a number, and press enter to perform a specific action (which is not significant to my question). The problem with this, however, is that if the mouse moves away from the text box, the menu closes.
Is there a way to keep the menu open as long as the text box has focus no matter what?
