Visio shape context menu

[BBD]

Hi all,

Does anybody have good C# / VB.NET example (or knows link) WITH source code
to add items to right mouse click context menu (when clicked on shape in
Visio page) and handle event afterwards, when user selects the custom item
in this context menu? I know how to add a row to Actions rows of a shape
shapesheet:

short ActionSection = (short)(VisSectionIndices.visSectionAction);
TheShape.AddNamedRow(ActionSection, "SomeAction", 0);
Cell ActionCell = TheShape.get_Cells("Actions.SomeAction");
ActionCell.Formula = "Some action name";

When I right-click on the shape in Visio, then I see the context menu item
"Some action name", thats OK, but the question is: how can I handle the
event when user selects the menu item from custom menu? What is a C# code
for that?

Thanks,
BBD

You might consider downloading the visio sdk. It has numerous examples on
event processing (marker events) and action menus.

Further to Al's reply, you can make the action formula
=QUEUEMARKEREVENT("/solution=MySolution /cmd=n")
or
=RUNADDONWARGS("QUEUEMARKEREVENT","/solution=MySolution /cmd=n")

You can then use the HandleMarkerEvent code snippet to listen for your
particular action, etc
