How to add a separator to a WinForms ContextMenu?

Question

Inside my control, I have:

ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
ContextMenu.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem(\"&Add Item\", onAddSpeaker));
ContextMenu.MenuItems.A         


        

Answer 1

ContextMenu has a constructor which receives an array of MenuItem objects. Needless to say, you can't add a string to that array. You can however get a seperator by adding a new MenuItem("-"):

    var contextMenu = new ContextMenu(new[]
    {
        timerMenuItem,
        keypressMenuItem,
        new MenuItem("-"), // Seperator
        new MenuItem(text: "Exit", onClick: (sender, args) => Application.Exit())
    });
