I have a toolstrip containing, among other things, a ToolStripComboBox and a ToolStripButton.

I am adding a label to a form dynamically, then dynamically adding a ContextMenuStrip control. Whether I use the label.ContextMenuStrip property to connect them, or add the event handler to the label manually to have it respond to the right-click and show the context menu, I get odd behavior: 1) The menu does not appear next to the mous...

Hi All, I have a DGV with a ContextMenuStrip. The ContextMenuStrip's default behaviour is to auto-close - i.e. to close immediately on the user interacting with it.

In C#, I have added a context menu to a third-p...
