Event Data

The QueryShowPopupMenu event's data class is QueryShowPopupMenuEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:

Property	Description
BreakShowPopupMenu	Gets or sets whether or not the parent BarManager.QueryShowPopupMenu event should affect only the BarManager itself.

Control	Gets a control whose popup menu is queried.

This event allows you to customize the menu assigned to a control’s PopupContextMenu extender property.

At runtime, the PopupContextMenu extender property can be set via the BarManager.SetPopupContextMenu method.
