# Context Menu

The Kendo UI for Vue Data Grid enables you to display a context menu by using the built-in Context Menu component. The **onContextMenu** event is fired when grid cells are rendered and the context menu is triggered on a right click.

The built-in context menu of the Grid allows you to control the rows selection and the column sorting. To enable it you should:

1. Set the [`contextMenu`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/grid/api/gridprops#contextMenu) prop of the Grid to `true` to enable the ContextMenu component.

2. Enable the [`selectable`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/grid/api/gridprops#selectable) prop to allow rows selection.

3. (Optional) Set the [`sortable`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/grid/api/gridprops#sortable) prop to true to allow column sorting, and take care of the built-in `sort` state.

4. (Optional) Add a column with `columnType="checkbox"` to render a checkbox selection column.

```html
<Grid
    :context-menu="true"
    :sortable="true"
    :selectable="{ enabled: true }"
    :columns="columns"
>
</Grid>
```

You can see the default Context menu of the Grid in action in the demo below.
