Font Size Increasing in Context Menu

[Steve]

This is definitely odd, but it seems the font for my context menu in the RadRichTextBox is being change according to the font I select.  See the attached image for an example.

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Hello, I've got same issue with DevCraft Q2 2014 Release. And I can't find the PITS Issue you've mentioned. I'm using default context menu with spellchecking suggestions and several customized groups.

How can I change font size of context menu?

Here is the xaml of my control.

<telerik:RadRichTextBox x:Name="TextEditorRichTextBox"
             AcceptsReturn="True"
             AcceptsTab="False"
             BorderThickness="0"
             DocumentInheritsDefaultStyleSettings="True"
             FontSize="{na:Settings EditorFontSize,
                       ConverterKey=UseFontToDipConverter}"
             HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
             IsContextMenuEnabled="True"
             IsReadOnly="{Binding Path=DataContext.IsTextReadOnly,
             RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor,
             AncestorType=views:DocumentView}}"
             IsSelectionMiniToolBarEnabled="False"
             IsSpellCheckingEnabled="{na:Settings IsSpellCheckingEnabled, Mode=OneWay}"
             LayoutMode="Flow"
             SelectionChanged="TextEditorRichTextBox_OnSelectionChanged"
             VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" />

And here is customization of contextMenu:

....
     contextMenu.Showing += SetContextMenu;
}

private void SetContextMenu(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.RichTextBoxUI.Menus.ContextMenuEventArgs e)
{
     var contextMenusToDelete = e.ContextMenuGroupCollection.Where(
                a => a.Type == ContextMenuGroupType.HyperlinkCommands ||
                a.Type == ContextMenuGroupType.TextEditCommands ||
                a.Type == ContextMenuGroupType.Custom).ToList();

     if (contextMenusToDelete.Any())
     {
           foreach (var ctxMenu in contextMenusToDelete)
           {
                e.ContextMenuGroupCollection.Remove(ctxMenu);
           }
      }

     var reformatCommand = FindResource("ReformatTextCommand") as RoutedCommand;
     var externalEditingCommand = FindResource("ExternalEditingCommand") as RoutedCommand;

     if (reformatCommand != null || externalEditingCommand != null)
     {
          var contextMenuGroup = new ContextMenuGroup(ContextMenuGroupType.Custom, "Ria Commands");

          if (reformatCommand != null)
          {
               var menuItem = new RadMenuItem();
               {
                    menuItem.Command = reformatCommand;
                };

                menuItem.Header = Strings.ReformatText;

                contextMenuGroup.Add(menuItem);
            }

            if (externalEditingCommand != null)
            {
                  var menuItem = new RadMenuItem();
                  menuItem.Command = externalEditingCommand;
                  menuItem.Header = Strings.LocalizedString0975;

                   contextMenuGroup.Add(menuItem);
             }

              e.ContextMenuGroupCollection.Add(contextMenuGroup);
       }
}

Hi Grigory,

Upon further investigation it turns out there is not much we can do to fix the problem. At this point the best I can do is suggest the following two workarounds:
- Modify the Normal style in the repository of each document loaded in the control. You can read more on the topic in the Styles article.
- Use implicit styles in your project. This, in fact, adds other benefits to your project as you can read in the XAML Theming – Implicit Styles versus StyleManager blogpost.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I have attached a image were the text in first three context menu items is bigger than the others below, I am using office theme 2013 and I wanted to know if this issue can be solved, If yes then how. If not I wanted to know how could I get the default style(Font Family, weight etc) of normal items other than the first 3 and set their style to first 3 items. Will the font vary from theme to theme. I wanted to know if setting this default will cause it to look different when blue theme is applied.

Hello Harish,

In order to deeper investigate the case, I would like to ask for more details on how to reproduce the described behavior (e.g. step-by-step walkthrough, binaries version, sample project, etc.). Any additional information would be highly appreciated.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
