How to create a right-click context menu for a button in WPF

Question

i know how to create a left-click context menu for a button, but I am not too sure how to do it for a right click? (i.e. how to specify that the context menu should appear on a right-click, not a left click).

Many thanks.

are you sure you don't have the question reversed? contextmenu is triggered by a right-click by default, to trigger on a left-click is what takes extra work (don't know why you'd want that on a button though?) — sellmeadog

Here is a sample:

<Button Content="button" Name="btn" Width="100">
    <Button.ContextMenu>
        <ContextMenu>
            <MenuItem Header="Cut"/>
            <MenuItem Header="Copy"/>
            <MenuItem Header="Paste"/>
        </ContextMenu>
    </Button.ContextMenu>
</Button>
