As shown in picture, is there any suggestion of how to detect right click event then create select able menu with API functions?

You can detect right mouse click by implementing/overriding the

virtual void ListBoxContextMenuRequested (const ListBoxContextMenuEvent& ev, bool* processed);

virtual function of the ListboxObserver.

And you can create a custom context menu like this:

void OpenContextMenu (const DG::NativePoint& pos) { const ULong CmdId1 = 1001; const ULong CmdId2 = 1002; const ULong CmdId3 = 1003; DG::Command cmd1 (CmdId1, 0, 0); DG::Command cmd2 (CmdId2, 0, 0); DG::Command cmd3 (CmdId3, 0, 0); DG::CommandDescriptor cmddesc1(cmd1, GS::UniString ("Command 1")); DG::CommandDescriptor cmddesc2(cmd2, GS::UniString ("Command 2")); DG::CommandDescriptor cmddesc3(cmd3, GS::UniString ("Command 3")); GS::UniString menuNameStr ("ContextMenu"); DG::Menu* menu = new DG::Menu (menuNameStr); if (menu == nullptr) return; menu->AddMenuItem (DG::MenuSimpleItem (CmdId1)); menu->AddMenuItem (DG::MenuSimpleItem (CmdId2)); menu->AddMenuItem (DG::MenuSimpleItem (CmdId3)); DG::ContextMenu* contextMenu = new DG::ContextMenu (menuNameStr, menuNameStr, menu); if (contextMenu == nullptr) { delete menu; return; } DG::CommandTable enabledCommands; enabledCommands.Put (CmdId1, &cmddesc1); enabledCommands.Put (CmdId2, &cmddesc2); enabledCommands.Put (CmdId3, &cmddesc3); contextMenu->SetEnabledCommands (enabledCommands); Int32 commandId = 0; DG::CommandEvent* commandEvent = contextMenu->Display (pos); if (commandEvent != nullptr) commandId = commandEvent->GetCommand ().GetCommandId (); delete commandEvent; delete contextMenu; delete menu; switch (commandId) { case CmdId1: case CmdId2: case CmdId3: break; default: break; } }

Or you can also create a popup-like dialog with a listbox or any other controls inside. The popup like dialog is closed on a mouseclick outside of the dialog area. You can set the popup-like style with the DG::Dialog::SetPopupStyle() member function. Popup dialogs must not have caption and sizeable flag. See the following example:

'GDLG' SAMPLE_POPUP_DLG_ID Modal | noFrame | noCaption | noGrow 0 0 100 100 "" { /* [ 1] */ LeftText 5 5 90 23 SmallPlain vCenter "Text" } 'DLGH' SAMPLE_POPUP_DLG_ID DLG_SAMPLE_POPUP { 1 "" LeftText_0 }

class SamplePopupDialog: public DG::ModalDialog, public DG::PanelObserver { enum { LeftTextId = 1 }; DG::LeftText text; const DG::NativeRect& openButtonScreenRect; public: SamplePopupDialog(const DG::NativeRect& openButtonScreenRect_); ~SamplePopupDialog(); virtual void PanelOpened (const DG::PanelOpenEvent& ev) override; }; SamplePopupDialog::SamplePopupDialog (const DG::NativeRect& dialogOpeningButtonScreenRect_, ...): DG::ModalDialog (resModule, SAMPLE_POPUP_DLG_ID, resModule), text (GetReference (), LeftTextId), dialogOpeningButtonScreenRect (dialogOpeningButtonScreenRect_) { SetPopupStyle (); Attach (*this); } SamplePopupDialog::~SamplePopupDialog () { Detach (*this); } void SamplePopupDialog::PanelOpened (const DG::PanelOpenEvent& /*ev*/) { DG::Utils::PlaceDialogNextToNativeRect (*this, dialogOpeningButtonScreenRect, DG::Utils::RightCenter); }
