ContextMenuShowingEvent Class

An event that occurs before a context menu is displayed.

Declaration

export class ContextMenuShowingEvent extends RichEditEvent<ContextMenuShowingEventArgs>

Remarks

You can define the ContextMenuShowing event handler either at the server side, at the client side, or at runtime.

Use the OnContextMenuShowing(String) method to specify the event handler.

@(Html.DevExpress().RichEdit("richEdit")
 .OnContextMenuShowing("function(s,e) {
   var characterProperties = s.selection.activeSubDocument.getCharacterProperties(s.selection.intervals[0]);
   if (characterProperties.bold === true || characterProperties.bold === undefined) {
     e.contextMenu.removeItem(DevExpress.RichEdit.ContextMenuCommandId.Copy);
     e.contextMenu.removeItem(DevExpress.RichEdit.ContextMenuCommandId.Paste);
     e.contextMenu.removeItem(DevExpress.RichEdit.ContextMenuCommandId.Cut);
     e.contextMenu.insertItem(new DevExpress.RichEdit.ContextMenuItem('CutCopy', {
       icon: 'close', text: 'Copy Paste Disabled', disabled: true
     }), 1);
   }
 }")
 // ...

The event handler receives an argument of the ContextMenuShowingEventArgs type. The argument’s properties provide information specific to this event.
