RadContextMenu with RadCalendar

[Paul Gallen]

Hi

With regards to the RadContextMenu documentation it states:

"You can attach RadContextMenu to any UI element on your page. All you have to do is create your object, put a RadContextMenu inside its closing tags and define the event that will open the context menu".

I tried this with the RadCalendar, and VS complained stating:The RadCalendar does not support direct Content.

Sorry Iam am new to XAML, so a bit confused. Isn't the RadCalendar a UI element?

Thanks Paul

Hello Paul Gallen,

RadContextMenu have attached property ContextMenu that you should set in order to attach RadContextMenu. Here is an example on how to do it.

<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication15.Page"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:nav="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
        xmlns:inp="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input"
        Width="400" Height="300">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
        <inp:RadCalendar>
            <nav:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>
                <nav:RadContextMenu EventName="SelectionChanged">
                    <nav:RadMenuItem Header="File">
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="New" />
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Exit" />
                    </nav:RadMenuItem>
                    <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Edit">
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Cut" />
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Copy" />
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Paste">
                            <nav:RadMenuItem Header="With tags" />
                            <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Text Only" />
                        </nav:RadMenuItem>
                    </nav:RadMenuItem>
                    <nav:RadMenuItem Header="Help">
                        <nav:RadMenuItem Header="About" />
                    </nav:RadMenuItem>
                </nav:RadContextMenu>
            </nav:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>
        </inp:RadCalendar>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>
