Hello all;
I seem to have encountered a strange problem. I have a context menu
attached to a system tray icon (NotifyIcon) of a Windows App. Based on user
actions, I want to change the text of one of the menu items. Sounds easy
enough.
When I step through in the debugger, the .Text property of the menu item has
changed correctly (even at later points in the code), but when I right-click
on the tray icon it still shows the old value in the menu.
I've tried removing the menu item from the collection, changing the text,
and re-adding it, and also using BeginInvoke (the InvokeRequired always came
up false) to no avail. Another note: I set the menu text to a particular
value in the designer, and change it in the OnLoad of the Form, and this
works correctly. It is only when I try to change it at a later point that
is does not work.
Anyone else encounter this problem, and have some advice?
Thanks,
Derrick

Hi all,
Lately I have been working on an application in VB .net CF for Pocket PC
device. I have a small question about Context Menu.
When I try to close the window after context menu is poped up, the window
does not closes until I click on the window. Below is the code. Hopefully,
you can help me out.

Have a look at the code below. It's a really simple example where I
have added two controls to a form, a textbox and a combo box. Both add
owner drawn context menus to the controls, but the combobox will NOT
draw custom drawn context menu item. I have tried EVERYTHING (deriving
from MenuItem and even tried calling TrackPopupMenuEx directly), but
it just won't work!
I am currently reflecting over the combobox source code (oh joy!), but...

I have a MenuItem which is was added to the context menu at design time. The
context menu is for a button on a toolbar. At runtime I add and remove
sub-menuitems to and from this menu item. The problem is the dynamically
added items don't always appear.
If I add say 3 menu items and click to see the menu, the sub menu appears
and shows 3 items. This is fine. Now, if I add another item and click to see
the submenu, nothing displays. The...

I have a system tray icon for my application. Each time the user pastes some
text into the application, I add a submenu item in the system tray's context
menu. The first time I right-click the icon in the system tray, the submenu
item is there. After that, any subsequent right-clicks only show the same
menu that was displayed at the first right-click. In other words, it's as if
the menu is loaded into memory somewhere on the first...

Hello,
I'm toying with the idea of loading a MenuStrip (VB.Net 2005)
dynamically based on who is logged into my system. Every user has
different security settings and I want to customize the main menu
instead of showing all possible options and only enabling/disabling
certain ones.
I have a table that stores the menu item name, parent item (if
applicable), display order, etc. so that I can dynamically load my

I've been working on an app which has an array of RichTextBoxes. And I have
a context menu for the RTBs. The context menu has two levels; the first
level has two items, "Load Sample Text File" and "Insert Row >"; the "Insert
Row >" item on the first level invokes, if that's the right word, a second
level which has two items, "Above" and "Below". This all worked when it was
a ContextMenu. But I am trying to change it to use the new menu...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
