Interfaces	Description
IMenuDef (esriSystemUI)	Provides access to members that define a menu.

Remarks

This menu can only be used as a pop up menu or context menu. Create a new ToolbarMenu and add this predefined ControlsEditingSketchContextMenu to it using the IToolbarMenu::AddItem method. To display the ToolbarMenu as a right click context menu use the IToolbarMenu::PopupMenu method.

To enable the accelerator keys on this context menu complete the following steps:

Set the Form property KeyPreview to be True.
Translate the specified KeyCode using the ICommandPool2::TranslateAcceleratorKey in the Form_KeyDown.
If you want the accelerator keys to be recognized without displaying the ControlsEditingSketchContextMenu then create each command in the IToolbarMenu::CommandPool using the code below.

[C#]

private IToolbarMenu m_ToolbarMenu;

private void MainForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //Create a new ToolbarMenu
    m_ToolbarMenu=new ToolbarMenu();

    //Share the ToolbarControl's command pool
    m_ToolbarMenu.CommandPool=axToolbarControl1.CommandPool;

    //Set the hook to the MapControl
    m_ToolbarMenu.SetHook(axMapControl1);

    //Add commands to the ToolbarMenu
    m_ToolbarMenu.AddItem("esriControls.ControlsEditingSketchContextMenu", 0, 0, false, esriCommandStyles.esriCommandStyleTextOnly);

    //Create each command on the ToolbarMenu so that the Accelerator Keys are recognized. 
    //Alternatively the user must popup the menu before using the Accelerator Keys
    long itemCount=m_ToolbarMenu.CommandPool.Count;
    for (int i=0; i < itemCount; i++)
    {
        ICommand pCommand=m_ToolbarMenu.CommandPool.get_Command(i);
        pCommand.OnCreate(m_mapControl);
    }
}

private void MainForm_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    ICommandPool2 pPool2;
    pPool2=m_ToolbarMenu.CommandPool as ICommandPool2;
    pPool2.TranslateAcceleratorKey((int)e.KeyCode);
}

private void axMapControl1_OnMouseUp(object sender, IMapControlEvents2_OnMouseUpEvent e)
{
    if (e.button == 2) m_ToolbarMenu.PopupMenu(e.x, e.y, axMapControl1.hWnd);
}
