WPF Data Grid - Display a Context Menu for Data Cells

This example shows how to define a cell's context menu. The context menu allows users to delete a row or copy its data to the clipboard.

To specify a context menu, add BarItems to the TableView's RowCellMenuCustomizations collection. The menu item's DataContext property is set to an object of the GridCellMenuInfo type. That allows you to use the Row.Row.[Property_Name] path to access data source properties.

In this example, the Delete button is enabled only for rows whose CanBeDeleted property is true:

<dxb:BarButtonItem Name="deleteRowItem" Content="Delete"
                   IsEnabled="{Binding Row.Row.CanBeDeleted}"
                   ItemClick="OnDeleteRow"/>
