Persistent Context Menu

[Arokh]

I have added a ContextMenuStrip Control to my Listview.

Since the user will most likely select more options from the contextmenu,

(context menu items are acting as checkboxes,) I want the menu to stay open,

even after the user has selected an item in the menu.

 

I've already tried setting the .autoclose property to false,

but then the menu won't open after a rightclick.

 

Is there anyway to achieve this?

This would be a pretty unusual use for a menu - normally the do not behave in the way you are asking. Could you not have the various options also available through a tool strip - that way they would be available all the time.

Ohh I never used a ToolStrip, so I thought a Contextmenu was my "only" way.

 

Thanks for the tip.
