Answer 1

If you must do this immediately then this blog article describes how to use the plugin in windowless mode an then borrow the host broweser oncontextmenu event to detect the right mouse button. However I would hold off if you can and use Silverlight 4 which supports context menus directly. Its best to avoid windowless mode if you can.

I'm using the free context menu from viblend and I open it by doing the following:

1. Subscribe to the MouseRightButton event

this.Root.MouseRightButtonDown += new MouseButtonEventHandler(Root_MouseRightButtonDown);

1. Open the Menu in the event handler

Point pt = e.GetPosition(this.Root); pt = new Point(pt.X, pt.Y); this.Menu.Open(pt);
