Now we have the basic KryptonContextMenu up and working it’s time to incorporate into the various Krypton controls. First up is the KryptonRibbon. The control itself now uses our new context menu for all the built in menus such as the quick access toolbar customization menu…

 Not much difference from the previous menu except it has the correct border rounding and a heading as the first item. You can also specify our new menu as the context menu to be shown for a drop down or split style group button. Here you can see one being shown…

But you are not forced into using the KryptonContextMenu, you can still assign a standard ContextMenuStrip as in the past and it will use that. So your existing code will continue to work and you can migrate across ‘as and when’ you decide to do so.

If you wondering about the special context menu that appears from the application button then do not worry. I have no forgotten about it. Once all the controls are updated and documentation added I will be releasing a CTP so early adopters can play around with the latest bits. Then I will get to work on the app button context menu for the full release towards the end of the year.
