Question

I am using an Infragistics datapresenter that apparently automatically includes a context menu when the user right-clicks text in any unbound field. I simply want to disable this context menu for all the unbound fields. How? Note: I do have my own context menu setup for the datapresenter that should still function when clicking a record, but it does not appear when clicking individual fields of text as the “Auto context menu” does. I can’t just null it since i didn’t create it, but using a keyless style of {x:Null} doesn’t work either, it gives an error.

I added a link to sample project here: (Note in this sample i tried to sub in a context menu with no menu items, which then just has a “sliver” of a context menu- I couldn’t figure out how to post a zip file to stackoverflow

example with Auto context menu subbed by blank context menu-comment out xaml context menu to see my problem)

I saw your post on Infragistics’ site and that they didn’t give you an answer. It appears it doesn’t specifically support what you’re looking to do. This may be a sufficient workaround:

<Grid.Resources>
  <ContextMenu x:Key="cm">
    <MenuItem Header="test menu 1"/>
    <MenuItem Header="test menu 2"/>
  </ContextMenu>
  <Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:DataRecordCellArea}">
    <Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm}"/>
  </Style>
  <Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamTextEditor}">
    <Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm}"/>
  </Style>
</Grid.Resources>
