How to remove dock context menu for a particular WinForms Docking Manager control?
1 min read
Context menu event
The WinForms DockingManager has an event called DockContextMenu.This event will get fired before showing the menu.We could remove menu by handling this event.
The event handler has an argument of type DockContextMenuEventArgs.That arguement has 2 properties ContextMenu of type PopupMenu and Owner of type control.ContextMenu gives access to the menu which is going to be displayed and Owner identifies the docked control.So by checking this Owner object we can remove the contextmenu for a particular control.
C#
// EventHandler for DockContextMenu
private void dockingManager1_DockContextMenu(object
sender,Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.DockContextMenuEventArgs arg)
{
if(arg.Owner==calculatorControl1)
arg.ContextMenu=new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPMenus.PopupMenu();
}
VB
' EventHandler for DockContextMenu Private Sub dockingManager1_DockContextMenu(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal arg As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.DockContextMenuEventArgs) Handles dockingManager1.DockContextMenu If arg.Owner Is calculatorControl1 Then arg.ContextMenu = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPMenus.PopupMenu() End Sub
