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'm interested in name of this control:[URL]..What's the name of this control, how to make context menu and icon on tray bar?
I think it's very simple, but I couldn't find this.
I have written a VB.Net Windows Application using VS2003.Net under the 1.1.4322 framework. This application loads a lot of data on startup (about 4MB, taking about 30 seconds) and that data needs to be readily available to the user, so I wrote it to sit in the system tray, using the NotifyIcon and ContextMenu objects.Everything is working fine, even the menu (I have simple options like 'Update' to update the datasets, 'Show' to show the form, 'Hide' to hide the form, and 'Close' to actually close the application).However, when the user attempts to do a Windows 'Log Off', 'Restart', or 'Shutdown', the system refuses.After shutting down every application on the users' computers EXCEPT for my application, the system still refuses to perform the LogOff, Restart, or Shutdown event.In fact, the application I wrote does not even perform it's 'Dispose' method.[code]Therefore, I am convinced that it is my application interrupting the system's process somehow.I have written other Windows Applications WITHOUT the context menu / notify icon objects (apps that don't sit in the system tray) and this problem does not occur.I have also written other applications that DO sit in the system tray, and the same problem occurrs.To summarize this problem: I believe there is something wrong with the way my application is responding to the System events 'Log Off', 'Shutdown', and 'Restart'.This is occurring on Windows XP SP2 computers (has not been tested elsewhere).Could someone explain to me why this happens?? Is there some workaround or some known bug in .Net that causes System Tray applications to interact differently with Windows system events than expected??

View 7 RepliesSimply 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)
Private Sub NotifyIcon_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles NotifyIcon.Click
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Right Then

It stays open when the cursor leaves it.

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 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 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

I'm hoping someone can help me here. I've been having trouble positioning a Contextmenu when a user right clicks a specific column within a Datagridview.
The Contextmenu is just a list of names and whatever name is selected then populates the 'Right-Clicked' Cell. My problem is the Contextmenu appears in the top left of the screen. I would like it to appear where the user 'Right-Clicked'
Here's the code I am using witih Datagridview1_CellMouseClick1
[Code]...
I'm a newbie and it's taken me a while to get it to work this far. I did originally assign a Contextmenu to the Datagridview Column, and it appears very neatly where the user 'Right-Clicked'
Unfortunately doing it this way I couldn't populate the Cell. So decided to use the method that I have posted above.
I have a context menu strip on my application but I would like to associate it when a user right clicks on a list box in my application. The context menu appears on my mouse right click event in my listbox, but it appears at the top of my application instead of where I right clicked. How do I associate the list box control with the contextmenu.
NOTE: Maybe there is another control besides a contextmenu that I want to use here.
I have a panel on my form, and at runtime I create 19 panels within it. Each of these panels then holds a rich text box, and a picturebox.I'm feeding the content to the picturebox and the richtextbox from twitter, but I'd like to make a ContextMenuStrip for each image at runtime, to reply/retweet/view that user's profile.I have a sub for reading tweets, but I'm not sure how I'd have the context menu customize for each image to contain the user id.I can't for the life of me think of a way to pass the twitter information to the context menu to facilitate this.Here's a sample of the code I'm using (it runs in a foreach loop) to populate the controls create at runtime.
int_pnl = int_pnl + 1
int_wbb = int_wbb + 1
Dim pnl_contain As New Panel

below here is a picture of the form itself in use, to try and show what's being done above.
I drag menu strip on the form..Now I add two menu items...I want that when the user right click on Item1, ContextMenuStrip1 should be shown.
Sir with your code,Contextmenu is shown,when i right click on toolstip..

But the probs is that when i right click on Item1ToolStripMenuItem(drop down menu),context menu is shown...but drop down menu is diappeared,I dont want the drop down menu to be disappeared..
I am creating an application to store my usernames/passwords etc. I have a datagridview (DataGridView1) on my form which displays the following information for each of my entries: Website name, website address, username, password, email address used (I sometimes use disposable email addresses) and any notes relating to that entry.

Anyways, after thorough researching as much about context menu, I have tried to do a left and right click context menu, including the events that will happen by opening the context menu. I wanted this to happen on a specific place, not the form itself (In this case, a picture).The left click context menu works fine, but when I try a right click context menu, the left click context menu will pop-up as soon as I release the right click button.[code]By using this code, I have a small nuisance of the right click event, where when released, it also uses the left click event. Any ideas of how to, well, stop it opening the left click menu when I release the right click button?Alternatively, I was thinking of using a mouse hover event to replace the right click event, but I'm not that advanced of a programmer.
