Only open programatically (not gestures)

[selom]

Is there a way to only only the menu programatically? I only want to use it to show hints rather than through user action

Hi Selom,

You can set the IsOpen property of RadContextMenu to true. You can control the position of the context menu on screen with the RegionOfInterest property as described here.

I think you misunderstood my question.

I don't want the user to interact with the tooltip, either by tapping or holding on the control (or area where the tooltip is). The opengesture property controls this. I was asking if there was a third option or a way to disable the user interaction completely so the only time the tooltip gets shown is when I set the "isOpen" property.

Hello selom,

You can disable the open gesture by not associating your context menu with any particular element. Instead you can create and open it through C# and set the RegionOfInterest property to control where the menu is opened.
