I have a list box with multi-select enabled, I wanted to add a right click menu to it so I added a ContextMenuStrip and linked it to the list box. Issue is I can't figure out how to determine what item in the list was the one right clicked on to bring up the menu. It won't necessarily be one that's highlighted. Using VB 2010 Express

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.

View 2 RepliesThe user right clicks on my picturebox object. Good.When that happens, some code of mine executes and will generate a list of options.Then a menu appears where the mouse right-clicked, made up of these options.When the user clicks on one of these options, the menu is deleted and some code is run given the option index as parameter.How can I tell when the user right clicks? I can see an event handler for "click", but that includes left clicks.How do I create one of these menus? I mean, go ahead and right click something. That's the kind of menu I'm looking for.

View 8 RepliesI have a flowlayoutpanel populated with custom thumbnail controls. I have code set to display a context menu on the thumbnail controls and the panel. Once a page is displayed, I have to right click on a control twice before the menu will be displayed. I have debugged and followed code execution all the way down the line. There seems to be no difference in code execution on the first click which does not display a context menu, and the second click which does. After a context menu is displayed, everything is normal. All thumbnails will display context menus as they should. But...not the panel....I have to do the same to the panel, then it is fine.

I have a graphics application I'm working on that displays full screen so there's no control in the upper right to close the application. I have it set up so that a right click closes the application but I noticed that a right click menu comes up on the desk top after my application closes which is no big deal. You could ignore it but I was wondering if there's a way to turn off the right click menu so that it wouldn't come up though I would want it to be enabled after that first click that closes my program.
So the right click would close the program disable the right click menu and then enable it again so that the next right click would show the menu. Haven't come up with anything on searches. I could use something else to close my application but if there's a convenient way of doing this I would like to find out what it is. I have almost every key on the keyboard doing something though I haven't used F1 through F12 at the top of the keyboard. Maybe I'll use F1 if I don't find out how to do this. How to use F1 to F12 to close or do something?
I've been using keypress events to do a lot in my application but for
Select Case e.KeyChar
Case "F1"c
isn't valid.
I tried other things. {F1} etc. I have option strict on. Thus the little c is necessary for characters like "a"c or "b"c.
I want to have a NotifyIcon in the system tray that when clicked, opens a context menu on the NotifyIcon with several options that open different forms.
I have read I need to use a ContextMenu and after Google'ing and trying out various code I can't seem to get it working
would like to know if anyone knows how to change, the back color of the menu tile when we click on them.

I've written a little application that uploads selected files to my ftp server. What I want to do now, is add that application to the windows right click context. For example, I've installed anti virus, if i right click on my desktop there is a there is a new item within the right click list which lets my right click on files and scans. What I want to know is, how to I add my application into the right click menu, how to get my application to respond when I click on the entry in the right click menu and any other thing anyone thinks will be useful. I have never done this before, and I have never been taught in class.
