Folks , I want to show popup menus in the same way you see them in the
DropDownButton style in the WinForms ToolBar control. I plan to have small
"hotspot" icons around that are easily recognised as a way to popup a
context menu of relevant commands. In WinForms you simply Show a ContextMenu
in response to a click at certain mouse coordinates.

 

Is this possible in SL3 without too much suffering? If so, what can you
recommend? Otherwise, is there another nice UI technique of getting the same
functionality?

 

I've got the Liquid controls, but their menu seems to get clipped and you
can't just pop it up anywhere on top of all other controls. There are lots
of menu controls as parts of expensive brand name kits. Most searches on
this subject return a huge mess of articles on how to hack the creation
right-click context menus. I'm not interested in right-clicks, I just want
the equivalent of a WinForms ContextMenu.

 

Any ideas anyone?

 

Cheers,

Greg
