Question

I am using an old ActiveX control in my C# Win App.
it has a MouseUp event that its eventArgs is passing the X and Y of the point that we have clicked but for my scenario I am using its ItemClick event and its eventArgs does not have the info about X and Y.
but I need to know them to show my pop-up… so is there a way I can find out what is the location of X and Y that user has right-clicked so I can pass it to my contextMenuStrip.Show method.

Thanks

The Control class has a static readonly MousePosition property, this gives the mouse coordinates on the screen. You could use this to know where to position the ContextMenu.

From MSDN:

Control.MousePosition Property

Type: System.Drawing.Point

A Point that contains the coordinates of the
mouse cursor relative to the
upper-left corner of the screen.
