To get mine to show, I had to set the focus - aka BecomeFirstResponder();
void sort_Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var menu = UIMenuController.SharedMenuController;
menu.SetTargetRect
(NavigationController.Toolbar.Subviews[1].Frame, this.View.Superview);
menu.MenuItems = new UIMenuItem[] {
new UIMenuItem ("Current", new Selector ("SortItOut")),
new UIMenuItem ("Movers", new Selector ("SortItOut")),
new UIMenuItem ("Opening", new Selector ("SortItOut")),
new UIMenuItem ("Number", new Selector ("SortItOut"))
} ;
BecomeFirstResponder(); //not sure if you can do it on a
button - but that would make sense... I normally do it on the overall
view I'm using
menu.SetMenuVisible (true, true);
}
