    <p>In one of my WPF project, I have integrated WPF Toolkit's <code>AutoCompleteBox</code> control. I need a custom <code>Context Menu</code> for this control and I have added one using the <code>ContextMenu</code> property. Unfortunately its not showing the custom created one but showing the default one (i.e. Cut, Copy, Paste with Cut &amp; Copy as disabled). </p> <p>To recreate the issue, I have created a sample project and the window contains 2 controls inside a <code>Grid</code>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;Grid&gt; &lt;Grid.RowDefinitions&gt; &lt;RowDefinition&gt;&lt;/RowDefinition&gt; &lt;RowDefinition&gt;&lt;/RowDefinition&gt; &lt;/Grid.RowDefinitions&gt; &lt;toolkit:AutoCompleteBox&gt; &lt;toolkit:AutoCompleteBox.ContextMenu&gt; &lt;ContextMenu&gt; &lt;MenuItem Header="Menu Item 1"&gt;&lt;/MenuItem&gt; &lt;MenuItem Header="Menu Item 2"&gt;&lt;/MenuItem&gt; &lt;/ContextMenu&gt; &lt;/toolkit:AutoCompleteBox.ContextMenu&gt; &lt;/toolkit:AutoCompleteBox&gt; &lt;TextBox Grid.Row="1" &gt; &lt;TextBox.ContextMenu&gt; &lt;ContextMenu&gt; &lt;MenuItem Header="Menu Item 1"&gt;&lt;/MenuItem&gt; &lt;MenuItem Header="Menu Item 2"&gt;&lt;/MenuItem&gt; &lt;/ContextMenu&gt; &lt;/TextBox.ContextMenu&gt; &lt;/TextBox&gt; &lt;/Grid&gt; </code></pre> <p>The two controls have the same <code>ContextMenu</code> and if I run the solution, I can see that the custom created <code>ContextMenu</code> is working for <code>TextBox</code> and not for <code>AutoCompleteBox</code>. </p> <p>Also, I set the same Context Menu to Grid (parent control) and set <code>ContextMenu="{x:Null}"</code> to TextBox &amp; <code>AutoCompleteBox</code>. Now the <code>ContextMenu</code> is inherited for <code>TextBox</code> but not for <code>AutoCompleteBox</code>. </p> <p>So my question is, how can I create a custom <code>ContextMenu</code> for AutoCompleteBox? If it is not by design(<code>AutoCompleteBox</code>), how can I add a <code>ContextMenu</code> to a custom AutoCompleteBox control which is inherited from <code>AutoCompleteBox</code>. Please advice.</p>

    1. COWhat do you want in your Context Menu? From what I'm seeing it is inheriting the Commands from the TextBox. Maybe you should implement your own.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
