Context menu won't display

[Mark Brown]

I have an asp.net page that has a Treeview control.  The Treeviwe control consists of "Controller" nodes and "Reader" nodes.  The reader nodes are children to the Controller nodes.  So fully expanded, my control should look somethign like this:

++ Root Node
    -- Controller Node
        -- Reader Node
        -- Reader Node
    -- Controller Node

This Treeview control is built entirely from the page's code-behind.  I have several context menus based on the type of node.  The problem is that when I right-click, the context menu wil only display on the "root node".  I cannot get a context menu to display on any other node.

I have alternately set the EnableContextMenu on the nodes without any effect.  I have included a simplified version of the source code that creates the nodes.

So, any help would be greatly appreciated.  Here's the code:

            try
            {
                tvStatus.Nodes.Clear();

                RadTreeNode Root = new RadTreeNode(Resources.Globals.MenuCommandStatus);
                Root.EnableContextMenu = false; // I DON'T want a context menu on the root node

                                // controller menu
                RadTreeViewContextMenu mnuController = new RadTreeViewContextMenu();
                mnuController.ID = "mnuController" + DateTime.UtcNow.ToString();
                mnuController.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miControllerInit = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuInitialize);
                miControllerInit.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miSyncController = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuSyncControllerTimeMsg);
                miSyncController.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                mnuController.Items.Add(miControllerInit);
                mnuController.Items.Add(miSyncController);

                // Reader menu
                RadTreeViewContextMenu mnuReader = new RadTreeViewContextMenu();
                mnuReader.ID = "mnuReader" + DateTime.UtcNow.ToString();
                mnuReader.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miGrantAccess = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuGrantAccess);
                miGrantAccess.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miLockReader = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuLockReader);
                miLockReader.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miUnlockReader = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuUnlockReader);
                miUnlockReader.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miBeepReader = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuBeepReader);
                miBeepReader.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                RadMenuItem miStopAlarm = new RadMenuItem("Turn Off Alarm");
                miStopAlarm.SkinID = "WebBlue";

                mnuReader.Items.Add(miStopAlarm);
                mnuReader.Items.Add(miGrantAccess);
                mnuReader.Items.Add(miLockReader);
                mnuReader.Items.Add(miUnlockReader);

Hello,

You menus are not showing because:

mnuReader.ID = "mnuReader" + DateTime.UtcNow.ToString(); 

and on your elements you are setting:

 ndReader.ContextMenuID = "mnuReader"; 






The context menu Id's are different and tree cannot find them.
