By default, the C1ContextMenu control, its submenus, and the submenus of a C1Menu control will remain open even when a user clicks outside of the menu. The only way users can close the menu is if they click the C1Menu control or the C1ContextMenu control. However, you can change this behavior by enabling the automatic closing feature, which will allow users to close menus by clicking outside of the menu control's boundaries. To turn on automatic closing, set the AutoClose property to True.
To enable automatic closing, use one of the following methods:
Complete the following steps:
- Add AutoClose="True" to the <c1:C1Menu> or the <c1:C1ContextMenu> tag.
- Run the program.
Complete the following steps:
- In Source view, locate the <c1:C1MenuItem> tag for the item you wish to make checkable and add x:Name="C1Menu1" to it. This will give the item a unique identifier that you can use in code.
- Enter Code view and add the following code beneath the InitializeComponent() method:
| Visual Basic |
Copy Code
|
C1Menu1.AutoClose = True
|
| C# |
Copy Code
|
C1Menu1.AutoClose = true;
|
- Run the program.
Complete the following steps:
- Select the C1ContextMenu control or the C1Menu control.
The control's properties will appear in the Properties window.
- Select the AutoClose check box.
- Run the program.
