2. wanted to enable Radcontextmenu by default so help will display on all controls when ever user right clicks on any control.

can you please tell me how i can do this?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Srinivas,

You can attach RadContextMenu to your UserControl and you will be able to open it no matter where you've clicked in it. I'm sending you a sample project demonstrating this behavior. Please check it and inform us if you have any problems or concerns.

Hi Rosen Vladimirov

Thank you for your help and sample project. 

If we use it on USerControl then the context menu will display on every where include blank areas, but we wanted to display it only on controls, example:textbox etc.. 

is there any way that we can display context menu by default item on context menu and we will enable context menu for all controls by default ?

Srinivas.

Hello Srinivas,

One way to achieve this is to create a default Style where you attach RadContextMenu. After that you can create different styles for the controls you are using and base them on the default style. I've modified my project to show you how to achieve this. Please check it and inform us if you have any problems or concerns.
