IContextMenuItemCollection.IndexOf(String) Method

Returns the position of the item with the specified name within the item collection.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v25.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

int IndexOf(
    string name
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
name	String	Item name.

Returns

Type	Description
Int32	The item’s position in the item collection. -1 if the collection does not contain a specified item.

Remarks

Handle the CustomizeContextMenu event to modify context commands available in the Grid, Rich Text Editor, or TreeList component. In the event handler, call the IndexOf method to obtain a context menu item’s position.

Grid Example

The following code snippet adds the Clear Grouping item after the Ungroup Column command:

Razor

@inject WeatherForecastService ForecastService

<DxGrid Data="@Data"
        ShowGroupPanel="true"
        ContextMenus="GridContextMenus.All"
        CustomizeContextMenu="CustomizeContextMenu">
    <Columns>
        <DxGridDataColumn FieldName="Date" DisplayFormat="D" />
        <DxGridDataColumn FieldName="TemperatureC" Caption="@("Temp. (\x2103)")" Width="120px" />
        <DxGridDataColumn FieldName="TemperatureF" Caption="@("Temp. (\x2109)")" Width="120px" />
        <DxGridDataColumn FieldName="Forecast" GroupIndex="0" />
        <DxGridDataColumn FieldName="CloudCover" />
    </Columns>
</DxGrid>

@code {
    object Data { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized() {
        Data = ForecastService.GetForecast();
    }
    void CustomizeContextMenu(GridCustomizeContextMenuEventArgs args) {
        if (args.Context is GridHeaderCommandContext) {
            var groupItemPosition = args.Items.IndexOf(GridContextMenuDefaultItemNames.UngroupColumn);
            if (groupItemPosition != -1)
                args.Items.Add(groupItemPosition + 1, GridContextMenuDefaultItemNames.ClearGrouping);
        }     
    }
}

WeatherForecast

using System;

public class WeatherForecast {
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }
    public int TemperatureC { get; set; }
    public double TemperatureF => Math.Round((TemperatureC * 1.8 + 32), 2);
    public string Forecast { get; set; }
    public string CloudCover { get; set; }
    public bool Precipitation { get; set; }
}

WeatherForecastService

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

public class WeatherForecastService {
    private List<WeatherForecast> Forecast { get; set; }

    private static string[] CloudCover = new[] {
        "Sunny", "Partly cloudy", "Cloudy", "Storm"
    };

    Tuple<int, string>[] ConditionsForForecast = new Tuple<int, string>[] {
        Tuple.Create( 22 , "Hot"),
        Tuple.Create( 13 , "Warm"),
        Tuple.Create( 0 , "Cold"),
        Tuple.Create( -10 , "Freezing")
    };

    public WeatherForecastService() {
        Forecast = CreateForecast();
    }

    private List<WeatherForecast> CreateForecast() {
        var rng = new Random();
        DateTime startDate = DateTime.Now;
        return Enumerable.Range(1, 15).Select(index => {
            var temperatureC = rng.Next(-10, 30);
            return new WeatherForecast {
                Date = startDate.AddDays(index),               
                TemperatureC = temperatureC,
                CloudCover = CloudCover[rng.Next(0, 4)],
                Precipitation = Convert.ToBoolean(rng.Next(0, 2)),
                Forecast = ConditionsForForecast.First(c => c.Item1 <= temperatureC).Item2
            };
        }).ToList();
    }

    public IEnumerable<WeatherForecast> GetForecast() {
        return Forecast.ToArray();
    }
    // ...
}

Program.cs

// ...
builder.Services.AddSingleton<WeatherForecastService>();

Rich Text Editor Example

The following code snippet adds the Select All item after the Paste command:

<DxRichEdit CustomizeContextMenu=OnCustomizeContextMenu />

@code {
    void OnCustomizeContextMenu(IContextMenuItemCollection items) {
        items.Remove(RichEditContextMenuItemNames.SelectAll);
        var position = items.IndexOf(RichEditContextMenuItemNames.Paste);
        var newItem = items.Add(position + 1, RichEditContextMenuItemNames.SelectAll);
    }
}

TreeList Example

The following code sample adds Expand All/Collapse All items before the Hide Column command:

Razor

@inject EmployeeTaskService EmployeeTaskService

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData"
            KeyFieldName="Id"
            ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId"
            ContextMenus="TreeListContextMenus.Header"
            CustomizeContextMenu="CustomizeContextMenu">
    <Columns>
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="Name" Caption="Task" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="EmployeeName" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="StartDate" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="DueDate" />
    </Columns>
</DxTreeList>

@code {
    List<EmployeeTask> TreeListData { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized() {
        TreeListData = EmployeeTaskService.GenerateData();
    }
    void CustomizeContextMenu(TreeListCustomizeContextMenuEventArgs args) {
        var hideColumnPosition = args.Items.IndexOf(TreeListContextMenuDefaultItemNames.HideColumn);
        if (hideColumnPosition != -1) {
            args.Items.Add(hideColumnPosition, TreeListContextMenuDefaultItemNames.CollapseAll);
            var expandAllItem = args.Items.Add(hideColumnPosition, TreeListContextMenuDefaultItemNames.ExpandAll);
            expandAllItem.BeginGroup = true;
        }
    }
}

EmployeeTask.cs

    public int Id { get; set; }
    public int ParentId { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string EmployeeName { get; set; }
