PivotGridControl.PopupMenuShowing Event
Allows you to customize the context menus.
Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid
Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid.v24.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.PivotGrid
#Declaration
public event PopupMenuShowingEventHandler PopupMenuShowing
#Event Data
The PopupMenuShowing event's data class is PopupMenuShowingEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:
Property | Description |
---|---|
Customizations | Allows you to customize the context menu by adding new menu items or removing existing items. |
Handled |
Gets or sets a value that indicates the present state of the event handling for a routed event as it travels the route.
Inherited from Routed |
Items | Gets a collection of items contained within the context menu. |
Menu |
Gets what kind of pivot grid element invokes the menu. |
Original |
Gets the original reporting source as determined by pure hit testing, before any possible Source adjustment by a parent class.
Inherited from Routed |
Routed |
Gets or sets the Routed |
Source |
Gets the Pivot |
Target |
Gets the UI element for which the context menu is shown. |
The event data class exposes the following methods:
Method | Description |
---|---|
Get |
Returns information about the cell for which the menu is invoked. |
Get |
Returns information about the field for whose header the menu is invoked. |
Get |
Returns information about the field value for which the menu is invoked. |
Invoke |
When overridden in a derived class, provides a way to invoke event handlers in a type-specific way, which can increase efficiency over the base implementation.
Inherited from Routed |
On |
When overridden in a derived class, provides a notification callback entry point whenever the value of the Source property of an instance changes.
Inherited from Routed |
#Remarks
The PopupMenuShowing event occurs when an end-user invokes a context menu.
Use the event parameter’s PopupMenuShowingEventArgs.Customizations property to add new and remove existing menu items. This property provides access to a collection of actions that allow you to customize the context menu. To learn more, see Context Menus, Items and Links and Bar Actions.
To determine for what kind of pivot grid element (a cell, a field value, a field header or the field header area) the menu is invoked, use the PopupMenuShowingEventArgs.MenuType property. To gwt the actual visual element for which the menu is invoked, use the PopupMenuShowingEventArgs.TargetElement property.
Use the following methods to get more information about the visual element.
Returns information about the cell for which the menu is invoked. | |
Returns information about the field value for which the menu is invoked. | |
Returns information about the field for whose header the menu is invoked. |
#Example
This example demonstrates how to use the PivotGridControl.PopupMenuShowing
event to add custom items to the built-in context menu.
The event is handled automatically if the field’s AllowFieldSummaryTypeChanging or AllowFieldSummaryDisplayTypeChanging attached properties are true. The properties are defined in the HeaderMenuHelper class.
