Mostanas,

I would destroy and recreate the menu each time - that way you always get the width you need.

Look for the <<<<<<<<<<<< lines:

expandcollapse popup

#include <GuiMenu.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>

Global $sText, $contextmenu ; You need to declare a placeholder variable here <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

GUICreate("Links list", 500, 500)

$listview = GUICtrlCreateListView("Links", 10, 10, 450, 450)
_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($listview, 0, 400)

$item1 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("http://www.youtube.com/", $listview)
$item1 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q97c5szTgIA", $listview)

GUISetState()

While 1
    $list = _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices($listview, True)
    If Not @error And $list[0] > 0 Then
        GUICtrlDelete($contextmenu) ; Or you get an error here on the first pass!  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
        $contextmenu = GUICtrlCreateContextMenu($listview)
        $sText = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($listview, $list[1])
        $name = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem($sText, $contextmenu)
        $copy = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("copy", $contextmenu)
        GUICtrlSetOnEvent ( $copy, "copy" )
    EndIf
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then Exit
WEnd

Func copy()

    $list = _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices($listview, True)
    If Not @error And $list[0] > 0 Then
        $sText = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($listview, $list[1])
        ClipPut($sText)
    EndIf

EndFunc   ;==>copy
