Grid drop-down menu

Using the grid drop-down menu - PopupMenu

At DBGridEh there is a PopupMenuParams property, which manages the construction PopupMenu in the grid. By default, the grid uses the following properties to determine which PopupMenu is displayed by pressing the right mouse button: TDBGridEh.PopupMenu, TColumnEh.PopupMenu, TColumnEh.Title.PopupMenu. Using subproperties properties TDBGridEh.PopupMenuParams can expand choice and formation of PopupMenu.

The PopupMenuParams property includes the following subproperties:

BuildMenuOnPopup: Boolean

Defines if it is necessary to build a new PopupMenu or use ready-made. If BuildMenuOnPopup = True, the grid will form a new PopupMenu before being displayed. This allows you to create new elements PopupMenu or change / delete existing PopupMenu before displaying on the screen. Thus, the elements PopupMenu can be formed dynamically depending on the location display, and other conditions affecting the list.

UseGlobalMenu: Boolean

Specifies whether you want to add items to the menu in the global PopupMenu grid. The elements are formed in a global menu procedure TDBGridEhCenter.BuildCellPopupMenu. By default BuildCellPopupMenu adds nothing. You can write your version of TDBGridEhCenter class and override the method BuildCellPopupMenu to add new elements to the PopupMenu all Grids of the project. See more info in the section Using global properties for TDBGridEh.
