Hello Amar Deep,

In WPF it is possible to specify RadContextMenu is Resources and then attach it to some element.
This is possible only if you set x:Shared="False" on the RadContextMenu. This will cause new instance to be created every time you reference this resource (limitation of RadContextMenu is that it cannot be attached on multiple elements but x:Shared helps in this case).

Here is simple code:

<UserControl x:Class="Application1.MainPage"

    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"

    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"

    mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="400"

    xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation">

      

    <UserControl.Resources>

        <telerik:RadContextMenu x:Shared="False" x:Key="contextMenu">

            <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Item 1" />

            <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Item 2" />

        </telerik:RadContextMenu>

    </UserControl.Resources>

      

    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">

        <telerik:RadGridView x:Name="radGrid" Width="1000" Height="750"
telerik:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu="{StaticResource contextMenu}"/>

    </Grid>

  

</UserControl>
