ContextMenu ShowDelay not working

[gerardo]

How can I apply animation on contextmenu show. I'am trying apply ShowDelay and HideDelay properties but it shows no effect.

Hello Gerardo,

Thank you for your interest in our RadContextMenu.

The RadContextMenu itself is not animated. The appearance of the child of the MenuItems is animated. So setting Show/HideDelay will affect the appearance of the child element panel.

<telerik:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>
    <telerik:RadContextMenu>
        <!--<telerik:RadMenuItem IsSeparator="True"/>-->
        <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Sequenz" >
            <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Sequenz" />
            <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Inhalt"/>
        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
        <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Inhalt"/>
    </telerik:RadContextMenu>
</telerik:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>

The RadContextMenu is placed inside Popup. To animate the appearance of the ContextMenu Popup, you can create an implicit Style targeting the Popup element. In the implicit style, you can set the AllowsTransparency to true and the PopupAnimation property.

<Window.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="Popup">
        <Setter Property="AllowsTransparency" Value="True"/>
        <Setter Property="PopupAnimation" Value="Slide"/>
    </Style>
</Window.Resources>

I hope this approach will work for you.

Thank you for your reply Sir Dinko. That style targeting the Popup element works and will apply on my project. Thanks.
