How to add context menu items

Reply Quote

Is there any way to add a context menu item? Specifically, I'd like to be able to highlight text, right-click, and select "Insert Hyperlink" to link the selected text. The documentation only refers to disabling menu items. Thanks for your help!

headchem,

Modify the following file to change the context menu layout:

CuteSoft_Client\CuteEditor\Configuration\Shared\Common.config

After a little guess and check, I added the following line to the Common.config file:

Then to get it to show up in a menu, I added this to the <SubMenu> section in <define name="EditGroup"...:

Now, the Insert Hyperlink menu option appears and works in the Edit Group sub menu.

My question now is how to get this menu item to appear on the main context menu, and not in a sub menu. Thanks for your help!

Thanks! That worked perfectly. My apologies if I missed these instructions in the documentation, but if not, adding them would be helpful to other developers. Thanks again.
