| Custom context menu Using the ActiveX control and .NET. All I'd like to do is create my own context menu when the user right-clicks a pushpin. I can trap when the right mouse button is clicked, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the pushpin object (or even just the Name property) from the user's click. You can get the x,y coordinates of the click event, but how do I find a pushpin from that? Thanks, Mike         |

Funny how you can search differently after you post a question. This seems to get the name ok, which I can work with, would still be open to suggestions. Code: private void axMap_SelectionChange(object sender, AxMapPoint._IMappointCtrlEvents_SelectionChangeEvent e)
{
MapPoint.Pushpin pushPin = (MapPoint.Pushpin)e.pNewSelection;
MessageBox.Show(pushPin.Name);
}

FWIW, this is what I'm doing so far, but really, I'm not sure of the best way. I just need to put together some demo/proof of concept real quick. Code: private void axMap_SelectionChange(object sender, AxMapPoint._IMappointCtrlEvents_SelectionChangeEvent e)
{
MapPoint.Pushpin pushPin = (MapPoint.Pushpin)e.pNewSelection;
if (pushPin == null)
{
// I guess other objects besides pushpins can get selected.
//MessageBox.Show("pushPin is null");
}
else
{
ContextMenu cm = new ContextMenu();
cm.MenuItems.Add("Do something with " + pushPin.Name); // To do: Wire the event handlers.
cm.Show(axMap, new Point(42, 42)); // Figure out how to position.
//MessageBox.Show(pushPin.Name);
}
}
