GridView Copy Context Menu

created 14 years ago

I'm looking for a step by step or sample on the most basic of items: a context menu that only appears when right-clicking in the data row portion of a GridView.
I do not want to alter the context menus that appear when right-clicking any of the header areas of the header areas of the grid. I simply want to add a new context menu whenever one or more cells are selected in the grid.
In my case, the GridView is MultiSelect and ReadOnly.
I'm assuming that I'm going to have to trap the right-mouse click and somehow determine if I'm right-click inside the data row portion of the GridView and if so, fire off my context menu.
A sample with this would really be nice.
Thanks!

    Hi Shannon,
    Thank you for your question. The easiest way to accomplish this goal is to handle the PopupMenuShowing event.
    I have attached a sample project, which demonstrates how to implement this feature. Please review it and inform me whether this approach suits your needs.
    Thanks,
    Stan
