Context Menu

[gorilla]

Hi, I was just wondering if you could programmatically change the size of the font and the font in the context menu without having to do an owner draw context menu in C#. If no then can someone point me in the right direction for an example of owner draw context menu? thanks

You can't, but I did an Ownerdrawn menu in my IExtenderProvider example (look in the Code Library for that). You can look at the code and see how to ownerdraw menus (it's for MainMenus, but the MenuItems are the same).

You can still always simulate your own menus, which would give

you a lot more options design wise, a couple of picture boxes and

handling their mouse over and click events...

Hey VolteFace,

I was lookin at your IEXtenderProvider example and I'm not sure how it works. i'm still a little new to microsoft vs...i followed your instructions of compilin the .dll and then draggin it in. i also placed my images into the image list but i'm not sure what the next step is, please help me out on this, much appreciated, thanks

i tried something like this but it does't work, i'm probably way off but

 

Button1.PictureBox = menuIconProvider1.IconImageList.Images;

[gorilla]

by the way, i'm tryin to implement this as a context menu for a "button" (the button is actually a picturebox control)
