    How would one override the context menu when you right click on the top caption bar of a floating dock window.

    Hi John,

    Currently this feature is not supported. We are not able to supply with a workaround either. Our plans are to have this feature in the Q3 release, due later this year. We are sorry for not being able to help you at this time.

    Hi Stefan,

    Yes, we introduced a way to override the context menu invoked by right-clicking the titlebar of a FloatingWindow. Please refer to the following article for additional information: Using the ContextMenuService.

    Write back if you have further questions.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Nicolay.

    I think you did not get exactly what the problem is. Your link describes how to change the context menu behavior on tabs from windows currently docked to the RadDock control with the status: "Tabbed Document".
    If you undock meaning Float a window from RadDock you have a complete new Window opened with a complete new Context Menu.

    The context menu looks like the attached screenshot "floatwindow_contextmenu.png".

    What i want to change is the context menu of the undocked float window and in addition it would be nice to change the behavior to allow:
    maximize button, minimize button and disable the "X" close button of the floated window.

    Best regards.

    Hello Adrian,

    The article that I have given demonstrates just one of the possible scenarios where ContextMenuService can be of help. Please note that this service is responsible for showing the context menu of the FloatingWindow's titlebar as well. When you take the ContextMenuService instance and handle the ContextMenuDisplaying event, you will notice that this event will be fired when needed.

    As to the buttons of the FloatingWindow, all you need to do is handle the DockStateChanged event and change the FormBorderStyle of the e.DockWindow.FloatingParent.

    Please refer to the attached sample project where the approaches are demonstrated.
