Hello,

I am adding a context menu to body tag of rad editor control while "EditorContentAreaMode" is set to Div.
Problem is that, it is not showing the context menu on right click in radeditor content area..

Below is some code sample:

Setting Editor properties
Editor.EditModes = EditModes.Design | EditModes.Html;
 
            Editor.Width = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit("100%", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
            Editor.Height = 0;
            Editor.AutoResizeHeight = true;
 
            Editor.ToolbarMode = Telerik.Web.UI.EditorToolbarMode.PageTop;
            Editor.ContentAreaMode = EditorContentAreaMode.Div;
            Editor.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Transparent;
            //Editor.StripFormattingOnPaste = Telerik.Web.UI.EditorStripFormattingOptions.MSWordRemoveAll;
            Editor.StripFormattingOptions = EditorStripFormattingOptions.MSWordRemoveAll;
 
            Editor.ToolsFile = "/Modules/HtmlArticle/ToolsFile.xml";
            InternalLinks EditorLinks = new InternalLinks();
            Editor = EditorLinks.LoadLinks(Editor);
            Editor = CSSClass.LoadCSSToParagraphList(Editor);
            Editor.CssClasses.Clear();
            Editor.CssFiles.Clear();
            Editor.CssFiles.Add("/mb/pub/css/default.css");
            Editor.CssClass = "mb_modules_HtmlArticle_articleEditors";

Adding context menu

   EditorTool SaveDraftTool = new EditorTool();
  SaveDraftTool.Text = "Save Draft";
  SaveDraftTool.Name = "SaveDraft";
  EditorContextMenu forBody = new EditorContextMenu();
  forBody.TagName = "BODY";
  forBody.Tools.Add(SaveDraftTool);
  Editor.ContextMenus.Add(forBody);

Well, It seems like body tag is not rendered when 

ContentAreaMode = Div

So next question is that how we can add context menu in this case?? I want to get the context menu when user clicks anywhere in content area!!
EditorContextMenu forBody = new EditorContextMenu();
           forBody.TagName = "DIV";
           forBody.Tools.Add(SaveDraftTool);
           Editor.ContextMenus.Add(forBody);

It adds the context menu but only appears when user right clicks in empty space in content area!!

Hello,

The DIV element does not have a body, because it is part of the current page and it is not possible to have two body elements in one page.

If you want to change the default context menu for the content area assign it to DIV tag. If you want to change it for paragraphs assign it to P tag, e.g.

<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" ContentAreaMode="Div">
        <ContextMenus>
            <telerik:EditorContextMenu TagName="DIV">
                <telerik:EditorTool Name="Bold" />
            </telerik:EditorContextMenu>
            <telerik:EditorContextMenu TagName="P">
                <telerik:EditorTool Name="Underline" />
            </telerik:EditorContextMenu>
        </ContextMenus>
    </telerik:RadEditor>

All the best,
Rumen

Well,

I got it. And I am assuming that I need to add the context menus for all html tags.

Thanks for your guidance.
