ShortcutKey in default contextmenu of Grid

[James]

Hello,

I am using 2010 version of Winform.
I want to add ShortcutKey ( Hotkey) in default contextmenu of Gridview.

Like,
hiding column ----  ctrl+H
column chosser ----  ctrl+c
Export ----  ctrl+E

How can i accomplish this?
Please put some code to understand, if possible.

Hi James,

Thank you for the question.

Basically, in order to implement your scenario you should handle the ContextMenuOpening event and assgning RadSchortcuts depending on the Text of the menu items:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radGridView1.ContextMenuOpening += new Telerik.WinControls.UI.ContextMenuOpeningEventHandler(radGridView1_ContextMenuOpening);
}

void radGridView1_ContextMenuOpening(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.ContextMenuOpeningEventArgs e)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < e.ContextMenu.Items.Count; i++)
    {
        if (e.ContextMenu.Items[i].Text == "Column Chooser")
        {
            e.ContextMenu.Items[i].Shortcuts.Add(new RadShortcut(Keys.Control, Keys.C));
        }
    }
}

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
