Disable/customize context menu in PdfViewer?

[Axel]

Hi,

how can one completely disable or customize the context menu in the Pdf Viewer control?

Thanks!

Hi Axel,

Thank you for writing.

To disable or customize the context menu you can use the DropDownOpening event. If you want to disable it you can just cancel the opening like this:

void RadContextMenu_DropDownOpening(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
    e.Cancel = true;
}

Also with the following code snipped you can remove a specific item for example:

void RadContextMenu_DropDownOpening(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
    foreach (var item in radPdfViewer1.RadContextMenu.Items)
    {
        if (item.Text == "&Next Page")
        {
            item.Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
        }
    }
}

Please let me know if there is something else I can help you with.

That works! Thank you!

Sorry to jump pin on this, but I have tried to find anywhere to use your code to disable the right-click context menu, and I can't find it.

Is this still relevant, or am I looking at it all wrong?

thanks.

Hello Damien,

Yes, this code still works. Here is how to subscribe to the event:

public RadForm1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    radPdfViewer1.RadContextMenu.DropDownOpening += RadContextMenu_DropDownOpening;
}

private void RadContextMenu_DropDownOpening(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
    e.Cancel = true;
}

Let me know if you have additional questions.
