KryptonContextMenu + Navigator
Monday, November 12th, 2007

The KryptonNavigator now uses the KryptonContextMenu for the menus that it provides. Here you can see the context button showing the Krypton version of the context menu…

I’ve added a new property to the KryptonPage called KryptonContextMenu. Now when you right click the client area of the page it will by default show any defined KryptonContextMenu property. If the property is not defined it will fall back to using the ContextMenuStrip, if set, as it is the existing functionality…

But the biggest change is a new event KryptonNavigator.ShowContextMenu that is fired when you right click a page header. This property allows you to specify a context menu (KryptonContextMenu or ContextMenuStrip) that you would like displayed relevant to the page. You can use this to have a menu with Save, Close, Close All or other page specific commands exposed.

    So far this is an incredible toolkit. I look forward to all the new features. By far the new menu “groups” and the buttonspecs for the Krypton Controls bring a new innovation to existing Windows.Forms that was not there before.

    Is there any plan soon for the AppButton menu from Office 2007? I am waiting because this is a requirement for use of the MS styles according to their specs.

    Yes, I plan on adding a App Menu for the Ribbon for version 2.7.
