Please help: When I Right click on grid without selecting a row, I should be able to see my context menu

[మాధవ్]

Hello

When I right click on telerik grid without selecting a row, I should be able to see my own context menu.

Which event supports this? I used Onload in the following way.

My Grid is defined in the following way:

@{Html.Telerik().Grid(Model)
    .Name("AccountVisitStatusGrid") 
    .DataKeys(keys => keys.Add("AccountStatusID"))
    .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding.Ajax().Select("_GetAccountVisitStatusCodes", "AccountVisitStatus"))
    .ClientEvents(events => events
                         .OnRowDataBound("Grid_onRowDataBound")
                         .OnDataBound("AcctVisitStatusGridBound")
                         .OnRowSelected("AcctVisitStatusGridRowSelected")
                         .OnError("AcctVisitStatusGridErrored")
.OnLoad("onload")
                         )                
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(o => o.Code).Title("Code").Width(100);
        columns.Bound(o => o.Name).Title("Name").Width(150);
        columns.Bound(o => o.Description).Title("Description").Width(150);
        columns.Bound(o => o.PASAccountStatus).Title("PAS Status").Width(150);
        columns.Bound(o => o.IsActive).ReadOnly().Title("Active").ClientTemplate("<input type='checkbox' name='ckActive' <#= IsActive? checked='checked' : '' #> onclick='return false'  />").Width(60);
        columns.Bound(o => o.IsAccount).ReadOnly().Title("Account Status").ClientTemplate("<input type='checkbox' name='ckAccount'  <#= IsAccount? checked='checked' : '' #> onclick='return false' />").Width(120);
        columns.Bound(o => o.IsVisit).ReadOnly().Title("Visit Status").ClientTemplate("<input type='checkbox' name='ckVisit' <#= IsVisit? checked='checked' : '' #> onclick='return false' />");
    })
    .Selectable()
    .Scrollable(c => c.Height("450px"))
    //.Pageable(paging => paging.PageSize(20).Style(GridPagerStyles.NextPreviousAndNumeric).Position(GridPagerPosition.Bottom))
    .Sortable()
    .Filterable()
    .Groupable()
    .Resizable(resizing => resizing.Columns(true))
    .Render();
}

Before, Context menu was only displayed when selected and do right click:
code:

function AcctVisitStatusGridRowSelected(e) {
       // debugger;
        if (!IsEditingDisabled('#btnEditAcctVisitStatus', 'btnEditDisabled')) {
            hideContextMenu(lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu);
            lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu = $(e.row).contextMenu('AcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu',
        {
            menuStyle:
                        {
                            width: 'auto'
                        },
            bindings:
                        {
                            'MenuNewAcctVisitStatus': function (t) {
                                 //debugger;
                                openDialog('N');
                            },
                            'MenuEditAcctVisitStatus': function (t) {
                                // debugger;
                                openDialog('E');
                            }
                        }
        });
        }
    }

Now to enable it just by , right click on grid, how to show up the context menu?????

I used this:


    function onLoad() {
         //debugger;
        $('tr', this).live('contextmenu', function (e) {
       // prevent the browser context menu from showing
       e.preventDefault();
       var $tr = $(this);
      if (!IsEditingDisabled('#btnEditAcctVisitStatus', 'btnEditDisabled')) {
            hideContextMenu(lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu);
      lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu = $(tr).contextMenu('AcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu',
        {
            menuStyle:
                        {
                            width: 'auto'
                        },
            bindings:
                        {
                            'MenuNewAcctVisitStatus': function (t) {
                              // debugger;
                                openDialog('N');
                            },
                            'MenuEditAcctVisitStatus': function (t) {
                                 //debugger;
                                openDialog('E');
                            }
                        }
        });
        }
   });
    }
}

I am not able to display the context menu?? How to solve this? 
For the above case where i just want to display context menu on right click on grid.

Hello,

The approach seems correct(using on instead of live would be an improvement). The parameter name for the row used to initialize the contextmenu seems to be incorrect(tr instead of $tr). Could you check if the contextmenu is shown when using the correct name:

$('tr', this).live('contextmenu', function (e) {
   // prevent the browser context menu from showing
   e.preventDefault();
   var $tr = $(this);
  if (!IsEditingDisabled('#btnEditAcctVisitStatus', 'btnEditDisabled')) {
        hideContextMenu(lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu);
    lastAcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu = $tr.contextMenu('AcctVisitStatusDataContextMenu',
