How to: Position a Custom Context Menu in a RichTextBox

This example shows how to position a custom context menu for a xref:System.Windows.Controls.RichTextBox.

When you implement a custom context menu for a RichTextBox, you are responsible for handling the placement of the context menu. By default, a custom context menu is opened at the center of the RichTextBox.

Example

To override the default placement behavior, add a listener for the xref:System.Windows.FrameworkContentElement.ContextMenuOpening event. The following example shows how to do this programmatically.

[!code-csharpRichTextBox_ContextMenu#_AddListener] [!code-vbRichTextBox_ContextMenu#_AddListener]
