How to have a context menu while in Designer

I put a RichTextBox on a form and right click it while in the Designer and
one of the context menu items is "Edit Text"

I have a control that has a RichTextBox on it. I'd love for that control to
have that ability.

Can you tell me where to look for info on how to accomplish that?
Thanks

I have a usercontrol that has a RichTextBox on it. I'd love for that
usercontrol to have that ability.
Actualy, that usercontrol has that feature. But when I put it on another
usercontrol it loses it

Can you tell me where to look for info on how to accomplish that?

How can I use the designer to add a context menu to a class which inherits from a control, e.g. treeview, without adding the context menu to a form? For example, to add a context menu with "Select All" and "Clear Selection" to a checked list box? Thanks, Aaron Queenan.

I am using several menu items from my main menu in my context menu. For some reason, all the menu items that I use in the context menu no longer show up in my main menu! I thought that maybe the context processing was setting the Visible property to false, but I verified that it is still set to true When I comment out my context code and rebuild, the menu items once again appear in my main menu I create the context menu as follows ...

The context menu is a form level control. Is there a way to affix a context menu, not to the form, but rather to one of the controls instead? Thanks for any help. Bernie Yaeger

When you create a MDI form, you can attach a main menu to the parent and to the child. When a child form is active, its menu is merged with the parent menu. The problem is: when the forms are right to left, after merging the menus the parent menu is displayed left to the child menu, which is ok in left to right windows but not in right to left windows. After you play with your mouse with the menu items, the parent menu suddenly goes to the...

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,...
