Merge Menus/context Menu
Feb 11, 2009
I have a form that is a mdi parent. In this form I have a menustrip the allow merge is set to true. I then have another form which is a child form. In this form I have a menustrip, I have the first menuitem merge action set to MatchOnly, then the rest of the menu items merge action are all set to insert. I then have a context menu in the child form, where which has the same menu items as the menustrip.
When i run the app, and show the child form, the menu items get added to the parents menu just how I expected. but the context menu does not display in the child form.

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 am trying to insert context menus in my web browser (not context menu strips because context menus look better) but can't get the to appear either by code or design here is my code below:
Note: don't tell me to use context menu strips because they look like crap.
Note: I am not a big techy so try to use small words as much as possible.
code:
If E.Button = MouseButtons.Right Then
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

I know there is a problem with these stupid treeview nodes and getting the ACTUAL node that user clicks on, so I am not surprised by this problem. I have a context menu, and it is assigned to only a certain level of nodes. Also the functions in the context menu execute correctly, the problem is they don't execute on the correct node. It is always the previously selected node, so if I want it to work correctly I have to left click on the node, then right click on it and it everything is peachy-keen.Alright, here is the code I have for one of the context menu strips:[code]However that is not a viable option as i am not getting the variable e as a TreeNodeMouseClickEvenArgs.

I open a context menu by right clicking it.
It stays open when the cursor leaves it.
I click a main menu item.
The drop down opens at the top left of the screen.
Not under the main menu item I clicked.
I want to search the Internet but can't guess what key words to use.

I have a blank form and when the use right clicks on the form, they get a context menu with any number of names in the menu. This changes depending on the situation. I can get the context menu to add/remove the list of names but when I click on one of the choices and it goes to my routine (from addhandler) I can't find the property that tells me what they clicked on...

I am using VB net 2005.I am also using the ActiveX Control DSOFramer.ocx supplied by Microsoft (url...).I would like to either not show or disable the right-click menus (context menus I think they may be called).If that is not possible, is it possible to replace the menu with my own, maybe just one choice like "Exit"?If that is not possible, can I somehow disable the right-click on the mouse when over this control?I am using the control to view PowerPoint and Excel documents.View only, I've removed Menu and Tool bars.Now just to disable the right-click menus.

I'm working on a Visual Basic application in Visual Studio 2010. The application was originally created in VB6, which had a dedicated menu button editor. Now I need to add new drop-down items to my button menus, but VS10 seems to have no facility for this. All attempts so far appear to lead me to tool strip support, which I do not want.

I have created a form with a menu-strip containing sub-menus. The sub-menus will open on clicking the menu items but I am willing to display the sub menus on moving the cursor on menu items(mouse-hover). What will be the code for this? Is there any property in menu-strip to display like that?

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 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?

I have an application. If I press a button, a menu show up.
How do I get a handle to that menu?
I use spy ++. It seems that the menu is not a child of the button.
I use FindWindowEx but I don't think I got the right handle.
Here is another possibly related question
Why the handle of a menu is of type HMENU rather than HWND?
In VB.net they're both integer right?

I've attached a context menu to a richtextbox. This textbox contains lines of data, and I want to find the text of the line which the user has pressed.I found how to do it after the user has chosen one of the context menu items. But I can't figure out how to do it before or when the context menu is opened. The reason for that is that I'd like to disable one of the context menu items if the line of text is missing some text. I tried the following but it's not working:
Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_Opening(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs)
RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(RichTextBox1.SelectionStart)
Dim line As Integer = RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(RichTextBox1.SelectionStart)

I have an INI file that contains several of these following entries.The Section names are all labled ASSET_CONTROLS_#.[code]The "Name" field should be added to the ContextMenuStrip control as a ToolStripMenuItem.If there is a value in "SubMenuNames" in the INI file, the ToolStripMenuItem created from the "Name" field, should have a DropDownItem created under it. I have separated multiple SubMenuNames with a SemiColon, so a loop would be used to create the separate menu items.Command and Parameters are to be used with the Process.Start function when the Menu Item is clicked. What is the best way to code this? I have been trying to do the event handling for the menu items for hours now and can't get it right. I basically want to call a procedure and pass the "Command & Parameter" values to it to use the Process.Start function.[code]
