ContextMenu on Pics?

[Kickassjoe]

I'm trying to make a contextmenu on a picture (Guictrlcreatepic()), but when I right click it, the context menu doesn't show up. I tried making a context menu on a button, and that worked, and then all I did was change the button to a picture, and it was a no-go. Am I doing something wrong, or is this not possible?

Got code?

Works for me..

$Gui = GUICreate(":-)", 120, 58)
$Pic = GUICtrlCreatePic(@WindowsDir & "\Blue Lace 16.bmp", 5, 5, 48, 48)
$Context0 = GUICtrlCreateContextMenu($Pic)
$Context1 = GUICtrlCreateMenuitem("Exit", $Context0)
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
        Case -3
            Exit
        Case $Context1
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Cheers

Do you by any chance have the Pic control state set to disabled?

smashly's example works for me too

OHHHH... Forgot to mention that the picture is on a tab / TabItem and on top of another picture. When I put a picture off of the tab / tabitem, it works, when it is on the tabitem, it doesnt.

EDIT:

@Bert: Yes, but it's messy and long, and uses an .ini and a lot of pics, don't want to release it right now.

It was the picture below the picture causing the problem, as seen here.

$Gui = GUICreate(":-)", 120, 58)
$Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic(@WindowsDir & "\Blue Lace 16.bmp", 5, 5, 70, 70)
$Context0 = GUICtrlCreateContextMenu($Pic1)
$Context1 = GUICtrlCreateMenuitem("Exit", $Context0)

$Pic2 = GUICtrlCreatePic(@WindowsDir & "\Greenstone.bmp", 20, 20, 40, 40)

$Context0 = GUICtrlCreateContextMenu($Pic2)
$Context1 = GUICtrlCreateMenuitem("doesnt show up", $Context0)
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
        Case -3
            Exit
        Case $Context1
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Edit: and no, I don't want to get rid of the bottom pic to solve that, if possible

Got it, GuiCtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE) after the first picture worked.
