Non-clickable Context Menu Header

Question

When creating a context menu, is there a way to have header text included? For example, when a user clicks a button, I want a context menu to show with two options. There should also be text above the options, with a sentence such as: 'Please select an option'.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

You can't do it with the designer but you can do it in code:

public partial class Form1 : Form {
    public Form1() {
        InitializeComponent();
        contextMenuStrip1.Items.Insert(0, new ToolStripLabel("Please select an option"));
        contextMenuStrip1.Items.Insert(1, new ToolStripSeparator());
    }
}

Answer 2

You can make a menu with 4 elements in this order:

• "Please select an option" -Disabled (this make it gray out and unlickable)
• Separator (------)
• Option1 -Enabled
• Option2 -Enabled
