I would like to assign a RadDropDownMenu to a RadListBox. I can't seem to find a way to do this. RadListBox has a "ContextMenu" and "ContextMenuStrip" property but these refer to Winforms versions of a ContextMenu so I can't assign a RadDropDownMenu. I don't see any other properties on the RadListBox like say RadContextMenu like there is on the RadTreeView.
Am I correct that this functionality is missing? If it is there, how do I go about doing this?

Hi Alex Peachey,
You are correct - we have yet to implement this functionality. However, for the time being you can use RadDropDownMenu and associate it with the listbox in your code. You have to subscribe to the MouseDown event of the control and add the following code to the handler:
This will cause RadDropDownMenu to appear every time when the listbox is clicked with the right mouse button.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

| radDropDownMenu1.Show((Control)sender, e.X, e.Y); |
| } |

This will cause RadDropDownMenu to appear every time when the listbox is clicked with the right mouse button.

Thanks, that's how I ended up doing it while waiting, but I was hoping it was built in some how. You can consider this a request to add a property like this to not only this item but really I think any control in the WinForms family should be able to have a RadContextMenu property that can take a RadDropDownMenu.

Hi Alex Peachey,
Thank you for the suggestion.
The implementation of RadDropDownMenu is logged in our TODO list and probably will be introduced with the next major release of RadControls.
If you have any additional questions, please contact us.

Hi Jorge Delgado-Lopez,
Thank you for writing.
You can add RadContextMenu to RadListBox by using RadContextMenuManager. Just drag and drop a RadContextMenuManager from your Toolbox to the form, and this will add RadContextMenu property to the RadListBox control. After that you can create and assign RadContextMenu according to your needs.
Hope this helps, if you have other questions, do not hesitate to contact me again.
Best wishes,
