i know how to create a left-click context menu for a button, but I am not too sure how to do it for a right click? (i.e. how to specify that the context menu should appear on a right-click, not a left click).
Many thanks.
A ContextMenu is attached to a specific control. The ContextMenu element enables you to present users with a list of items that specify commands or options that are associated with a particular control, for example, a Button. Users right-click the control to make the menu appear.
The DataContext property is the default source of your bindings, unless you specifically declare another source, like we did in the previous chapter with the ElementName property. It's defined on the FrameworkElement class, which most UI controls, including the WPF Window, inherits from.
In Microsoft Windows, pressing the Application key or Shift+F10 opens a context menu for the region that has focus.
Introduction to WPF Button using C# and XAML The Button control is one of the basic controls in WPF. A button is used to click and execute code on its click event handler. A button control can be represented at design-time using the XAML <Button> element. The Button class in C# represents the WPF button at run-time.
Here is a sample:
<Button Content="button" Name="btn" Width="100">
<Button.ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu>
<MenuItem Header="Cut"/>
<MenuItem Header="Copy"/>
<MenuItem Header="Paste"/>
</ContextMenu>
</Button.ContextMenu>
</Button>
