    I've been using the control suite awhile and it's great -

    I was looking through the how-to's and was wondering if there is one on how to create and use a basic Radmenu context menu?

    The traditional menustripname.show() command doesn't work with the menu's I create, so I'm probably doing something wrong.

    Thanks!

    Hi Jim,

    To create a context menu use the RadDropDownMenu. You can just drop a RadDropDownMenu from the toolbox to the design surface or create it trough code. To show the context menu trough API use this code:

    RadDropDownMenu menu = new RadDropDownMenu();

    menu.Items.Add(new RadMenuItem("Item 1"));
    menu.Items.Add(new RadMenuItem("Item 2"));
    menu.Items.Add(new RadMenuItem("Item 3"));

    menu.Show(Control.MousePosition);

    Thanks a lot!!!

    Just adding these context menus will make the application pop even more than the other Telerik controls I've got.  Thanks so much for your time!!  I'll let you know how I fare.

    Jim

    Edit - The thing I was missing was I was trying to use the RadMenu bar instead of the RadDropDownMenu.  Talk about missing the forest for the trees!  Thanks a lot!
