How to achieve to right click cell and copy cell's value

created 12 years ago

hi,
you can see attached image.
we have used your windows grid control to build this gridview table.
what we want is for example, I right click one cell , then popup the context menu, and there is a Copy there. if user click Copy, then it will copy the cell's value, so user can paste it to the notepad.

do you know how to achieve that?

Hi Yang,
Follow the How to show a context menu for grid rows example to learn how to show a context menu for the Grid. To implement the Copy feature, utilize the approach from the How to copy selected rows to the clipboard example. To get a grid cell value at the mouse click point, use the GridView.GetFocusedValue method.
