Prevent ContextMenu closing on item select

Question

I am trying to include an ej.inputs.NumericTextBox input into the ContextMenu. Is it possible to prevent the closing of the menu when the NumericTextBox is manipulated (ie. either user types a value, or uses the arrows to adjust the value)?

Thank you

Hi Ivica, 
Greetings from Syncfusion support. 
We can prevent closing of Context menu by using args.cancel property to true in beforeClose event. 
For your reference, we have prepared a sample based on this, please refer below link.
