Property Value

Type	Description
DevExpress.Xpf.Bars.CommonBarItemCollection	A DevExpress.Xpf.Bars.CommonBarItemCollection collection that contains bar items and bar item links displayed in this PopupMenu.

Remarks

You can add BarItem and BarItemLink descendants to the Items collection.

The PopupMenu class has the System.Windows.Markup.ContentPropertyAttribute attribute that marks the Items property as the XAML content property. So in XAML, bar items and bar item links defined between the PopupMenu start and end tags will be added to the current Items collection.

Example

This example shows how to associate a popup menu with a TextBox control via the BarManager.DXContextMenu attached property.

The following image shows the result:
