merging mdichild menu replaces mainlevel menuitem an causes the wrong popup to be rasided

A MDI form has a MenuItem "File" that contains other MenuItems.

A MdiChild form also contains a "File" MenuItem containing other MenuItems.

They are both mergetype MergeItems and mergeindex=0

When that form is activated they merge OK but the File MenuItem is the one
from the childform so if it is clicked, the popup on the mdiform is not
raised and the popup on the child form is.

Is it possible to merge the other items from the child form without
replacing the MDI form File menuitem with the child File menuitem?

I'd like the popup of the mdi form to be raised.
Thanks

I'm trying to enable a menuitem in the parent form from a mdichild. Rather than making the menuitems public, I'd go for a public method in the parent form to do the change, but when I call the method from the mdichild, I get this error: C:\MyProjects\Visual Studio Projects\Tournament\Forms\frmLogin.cs(69): The name 'test' does not exist in the class or namespace 'Tournament.frmLogin' frmLogin is the mdichild.

Hi, I'm looking of a way (preferred - a ready class or dll) to customize the context menu. many application has more controls inside the context menu (like textbox, sliders, checkbox, panel etc'). is there a way making this without writing my own context menu (meaning, popup form or something) ?

Hello, is there a way to menu control dynamically center itself horizontally on a page? I have placed a menu control in a panel control (no ajax) and would like it to center itself. Depending on whose logged in, the menu, or course, displays different items, sometimes just two items, other times many more. If all menu items are displaying, centering is not a problem but when only two items are displayed, the menu appears on the left hand...

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,...
