Show default IE Context Menus

[Michael]

Hi,

Is there any way to show the default IE context menu when the user right clicks in the editor? I don't want a custom context menu, just the default context menu. The client has a rather rich IE context menu with customizations from add-ons and in the radeditor the menu is not shown. I have tried disabling the editor context menus but still nothing shows.

Thank you.

Michael

Hi,

If you want to enable the default browser's content menu and disable the built-in context menus of RadEditor, you can do that using the following JavaScript code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function OnClientLoad(editor) {
 editor.get_toolAdapter().enableContextMenus(false);
}
</script>
<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor" OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad" runat="server"/>

Hi Rumen,

That works greatly in showing the default IE context menu. However it also removes the customizations the client has on those menus and shows simply the classic menus. Any thoughts on how to fix that?

Hi,

Could you please be more specific and provide screenshot or video demonstrating the customized context menus of your client? The code just disables the RadEditor's context menus and does not alter the browser's ones.

All the best,

Hi Rumen,

I have been able to resolve it with a combination of your script and setting the editor content area mode to Div. It seems to not work with i-frames I suppose the custom menus recognize the area differently.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Rumen,

In RadEditor i have created a context menu 
--------------------------------------------------------------
<ContextMenus>
                                 <Telerik:EditorContextMenu  Enabled="True" TagName="P" >
                                         <Telerik:EditorTool Text="Compare" Name="comapre" ShowIcon="true" ImageUrl="../Images/Compare.ico" />
                                  </Telerik:EditorContextMenu>
   </ContextMenus>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
calling that context menu item from java script-------in this i am calling serverside button click
  function OnClientCommandExecuting(commandName, editor, args) 
        {
            Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.CommandList["comapre"] = function (commandName, editor, args) {
                //var editor = $find("<%=RadEditor1.ClientID%>");
                var selection = editor.getSelectionHtml();
                var elem = editor.getSelectedElement();
                if (elem.tagName == "P") {
                    document.getElementById("hf1").value = selection;
                    var clickButton = document.getElementById("<%= btnCompare.ClientID %>");
                    clickButton.click();
                     
                }
            };

        }
All this is working fine in fire fox and chrome,but when comes to IE it is showing context menu for right click,next time right clicks default context menu is displaying ,i need to display custom context menu.................
