Which event to trap?
posted

Hi

I have a typical main menu above my winform which has an Edit drop down with Cut/Copy/Paste options. What event should I trap when the user clicks on Edit so I can disable the Cut/Copy/Paste options based on the context before the Edit menu is actually displayed?

Thanks

Regards

     There's a BeforeToolDropDown event which you can subscribe to. Here's an example:

            private void ultraToolbarsManager1_BeforeToolDropdown(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinToolbars.BeforeToolDropdownEventArgs e)
            {
                if (e.Tool.Key == "Edit")
                {
                    if (condition)
                    {
                        ((Infragistics.Win.UltraWinToolbars.ButtonTool)ultraToolbarsManager1.Tools["ButtonTool2"]).SharedProps.Enabled = false;
                    }
                }
            }
