Context menu problem
-
Hi everyone !! I've a dialog based application in which I've added a context menu. I had previously defined a menu similar to file menu which works fine. Recently I added a context menu for one of the dialogs. It is not working :(( I checked the resource file for any duplicate id's and corrected that also but nothing seems to be helping me. Here is what I did. 1. Added a context menu in Resource->Menu. 2. Added a context menu command handler for that dialog. 3. Added command handler for each of the ID in this menu. When I compile, build and run the application it gives no errors but the commands from this context menu are not working. :(( When I try implementing a context menu with another project it works fine. :confused: Please help Thanks, Gajendra

This is in message maps: ON_COMMAND(ID_DIR_REVN_MENU, On_Dir_Revn_Menu) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I've customised the display of context menu to deligate to another function. The context menu code is loaded properly and displayed. // called from the original OnContextMenu void CFPLN_PAGE_Dialog::On_Fpln_Revn_Menu(CPoint point) { point.x = 90; point.y = 95; ClientToScreen(&point); CMenu m_Fpln_Revn_Menu, *m_Ptr_ContextMenu; m_Fpln_Revn_Menu.LoadMenu(IDR_FPLN_REVN_MENU); m_Ptr_ContextMenu = m_Fpln_Revn_Menu.GetSubMenu(0); ASSERT(m_Fpln_Revn_Menu); m_Ptr_ContextMenu->TrackPopupMenu(TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_LEFTBUTTON, point.x, point.y, AfxGetMainWnd()); } ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Then the command handler code is: void CFPLN_PAGE_Dialog::On_Dir_Revn_Menu() { // TODO: Add your command handler code here AfxMessageBox("dir revn menu"); } Is this ok for you to guess something...? Let me know if you want to know more about the problem. You can mail to me: "gajendra.kashyap@valtech.co.in" Thanks, Gajendra

Whats problem with this code it work,when you run this code you see a contextmenu in 90x95(create a menu in resource and event handler and run ...not problem)but you need to use
CPoint point; GetCursorPos(&point); //for get current position instead point.x&point.y=value._**

The problem is that the commands from context menu are not working. The corresponding mapped function is not called when something is selected in the menu. Gaj

Yes the IDs are unique. I've ResOrgAddin tool to check that. I got the problem just a few mins back. I don't know if I can load an image here but the I'll try to explain the design. I've a main dialog for the application, lets call this parent. I've several child dialogs which are displayed overlayed on this parent dialog. I implemented context menu only for one of the child dialog... it did not work as expected. Although the context menu was displayed the commands were not getting generated ... Surprising. Now I implemented the contextmenu on the parent dialog and it works as expected jst need to control the display on right dialog. I don't think it is the right way to do... but it is working. If i could send and handle the commands from the right dialog on which context menu is displayed would be the best situation. Let me know your valuable opinion. :) Thanks, Gaj
