Context Menu

The context menu can be applied to any host control to implement a right-click 'context sensitive' menu. This uses an attached property of the host control.

To review the concept behind this use of an attached property, see here.

Example

This example, a context menu is attached to a multi-line text box:

<TextBox AcceptsReturn="True" TextWrapping="Wrap">
  <TextBox.ContextMenu>
    <ContextMenu>
      <MenuItem Header="Copy"/>
      <MenuItem Header="Paste"/>
    </ContextMenu>
  </TextBox.ContextMenu>     
</TextBox>

Context Flyout

You can use a context flyout as an alternative to a context menu. A context flyout can provide a sharable and richer UI experience than a simple context menu.

warning

A control cannot have a context flyout and a context menu attached at the same time.

A context flyout is invoked automatically like a context menu.
