Hi Uwe 

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion Support. 

 

We have checked your requirement to add MenuAdv as contextmenu in NotifyIcon. Yes we can add it using the following code. 

 

Code:[XAML] 

 

 

<syncfusion:NotifyIcon 

Name="notifyIcon" 

Icon="Images/floppy-icon.png" 

ShowInTaskBar="True" 

Text="Notify ToolTip" MouseLeftButtonDown="notifyIcon_MouseLeftButtonDown"> 

 

<!--Adding menuitem as contextmenu in NotifyIcon--> 

<syncfusion:NotifyIcon.ContextMenu> 

<ContextMenu> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv Header="New"> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

<Image 

Width="15" 

Height="15" 

Source="/Images/base_charts.png" /> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv Header="Open"> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

<Image 

Width="15" 

Height="15" 

Source="/Images/Green.png" /> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv Header="Save"> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

<Image 

Width="15" 

Height="15" 

Source="/Images/Orange.png" /> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv Header="Close"> 

<syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

<Image 

Width="15" 

Height="15" 

Source="Images/Blue.png" /> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon> 

</syncfusion:MenuItemAdv>

One more question. It works perfect. But when I add an Seperator

                    <syncfusion:MenuItemAdv x:Name="MenuAbout" Header="Nach _Updates suchen" Click="menuAbout_Click">

                        <syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon>

                            <Image

                                Width="32"

                                Height="32"

                                Source="/images/btn_about_lrg.png" />

                        </syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon>

                    </syncfusion:MenuItemAdv>

                    <syncfusion:MenuItemSeparator/>

                    <syncfusion:MenuItemAdv x:Name="MenuBeenden" Header="_Beenden" Click="menuBeenden_Click">

                        <syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon>

                            <Image

                                Width="32"

                                Height="32"

                                Source="/images/exit_32.png" />

                        </syncfusion:MenuItemAdv.Icon>

                    </syncfusion:MenuItemAdv>

Then it looks like this:

It shows an empty line, but not the Seperator line.

Thanks and regards

Hi Uwe 

 

Thank you for your patience. 

 

On further analyzing, we have been implemented the margin space of  MenuItemSeparator to be incorporate only for our MenuAdv control. So when we use the MenuAdv , the MenuItemSeparator has been recommended. However it does not support for MenuAdv when it has been using as Context Menu. We can confirm it is a behavior of our MenuAdv control. So we suggest you to use the standard Separator in this case. 

 

Please let us know if you need any other assistance on this.
