True if the contextual mouse button has been clicked and False if it was not.

Notes

A contextual click varies depending on platform and user settings. Most often it is done by right-clicking the mouse. On macOS, a contextual click is also triggered by holding the control key down while left clicking.

Generally speaking, if you want to show a contextual menu, you should use the ConstructContextualMenu and ContextualMenuItemSelected events to row contextual menus.

IsContextualClick is useful in the MouseDown event to check for a contextual click when you are not intending to display a menu.

Sample code

To display an existing menu, you should use the Clone method as in this example:

If IsContextualClick Then
 Var m As MenuItem
 m = EditMenu.Clone.PopUp
End If

Compatibility

All project types on all supported operating systems.
