How to create the WinForms PopupMenu?

Create a PopupMenu
Using the designer
First, you have to make sure you have added the components in the Syncfusion.Tools.Windows assembly to your toolbox. You do this by right-clicking your toolbox and selecting the components from the above assembly that you find listed under .NET Framework Components.
Once you have the Syncfusion components to your toolbox, you drag-and-drop the PopupMenu component onto your form.
Also drop a PopupMenusManager on your form designer to easily associate a PopupMenu with any control. Make sure not to use more than one instance of the PopupMenusManager in your form.
In Code
In code, creating a PopupMenu and PopupMenusManager is simple:
C#
this.popupMenu1 = new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.PopupMenu(); this.popupMenusManager1 = new PopupMenusManager(); this.popupMenusManager1.SetXPContextMenu(this.popupMenu1, this);
VB
Me.popupMenu1 = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.PopupMenu() Me.popupMenusManager1 = New PopupMenusManager() Me.popupMenusManager1.SetXPContextMenu(Me.popupMenu1, Me)
