.NET Is it possible to have a contextmenu on an item of a combobox?

Question

In my application I have dropdown list with several items. I\'d like to show a context menu when the user clicks the right mouse button on a dropdown item. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Not possible easily. No hover or right-click event messages are being sent when the combobox is expanded.

You can see this is the case when using Spy++.

I think the easiest would be to change to a listbox if your scenario allows you to do that.
