Hi Telerik,

I'm trying to retrieve the date of which I have right-clicked.
How can I retrieve a date (in month view) from a given point in the calendar.

Or if it is possible to have right-click also select the date would help me.

What I'm trying to achieve is that I have added a context menu and need to display some checked menu items according to the date being right-clicked (not the selected date).

Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Kasper Schou

Hello Kasper,

I suggest you subscribe to Opened event of RadContextMenu and find the clicked CalendarButton in its handler like this:

private void RadContextMenu_Opened(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

    var calendarButton = (sender as RadContextMenu).GetClickedElement<CalendarButton>();

    if (calendarButton != null)

    {

        var calendarButtonContent = calendarButton.Content as CalendarButtonContent;

        if (calendarButtonContent != null)

        {

            var clickedDate = calendarButtonContent.Date;

        }

    }

}

You can find attached a simple example demonstrating the approach. Hope this helps.
