I have a Grid->Content Menu->Grid->RadMenu

So I have a grid with a column that contains a context menu which when right clicked displays another grid that contains a column that has a RadMenu ... the issue is when mousing over the RadMenu it opens in the top left corner of the page not in the desired location (the mouse position) ... any thoughts?

I have seen this issue before and fixed it but it was over a year ago and for the life of me can not remember what I did to fix it.

Hi Sean,

Could you describe more precisely your problem? When you say Grid do you mean RadGridView? Is the second Grid inside the RadContextMenu or somewhere else? Also which version of RadControls are you using? I've tried several different scenarios to reproduce your problem, but unfortunately I'm not able to do it, so if you can isolate the problem in a simple example, it would be a great help.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sorry, yes I mean RadGridView so a user right clicks a row in a 'RadGridView' which displays a 'ContextMenu' which contains another RadGridView - in that RadGridView is a column with a 'RadMenu"

<RadGridView>
      <RadContextMenu>
         <RadMenuItem>
             <Grid>
                     <RadGridView>
                              <GridViewColumn>
                                      <RadMenu /> 
                               </GridViewColumn>
                      </RadGridView>
              </Grid>
          </RadMenuItem>
      </RadContextMenu>
</RadGridView>

Hi Sean,

I'm sending you the project for Silverlight 4. I tried to reproduce the problem once again, but I'm still not able to do it. Could you check the attachment and inform me if I'm doing something in a different manner than you?

Please note that RadControls are no longer distributed for Silverlight 4 and also SL 4 is in limited support. We strongly recommend you to use Silverlight 5 and get access to all of our new features. You can check the Official RoadMap here.

Figured it out ... difference between yours and mine was the you placed the contextmenus content inside the header... I had
<contextmenu>
<radmenuitem header="details">
<radgridview>
....

Changed it to
<contextmenu>
<radmenuitem>
<radmenuitem.header>
<radgridview>

This is a little different than where I was because I had a 'details' label but thats all right at least the menu position is now correct thanks.
