How can I show a contextMenuStrip when a user right click a mainMenuStrip item?

  Sorry for the wait. I have been on a business meeting trip.
  As far as what you are doing....do this:
  
  
  
  pass in the control or button control that you want the context menu to associate to, and a point.
  
  So:
  
  // Point where the mouse is clicked.
  Point p = new Point(e.X, e.Y);
  
  this.myDesignTimeCreatedContextMenuStrip.Show(the toolbar control object, p);

  You are going to have to get do a mouse_up event on the toolbar button itself.
  
  this.ExampleBtn.MouseUp += new System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventHandler(this.ExampleBtn_MouseUp);
  
  Then what you are going to do is check what button was clicked.
  
  private void ExampleBtn_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
  {
  

  if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
  {
  

  create context menu...bla bla bla.
  

  }
  

  }
  
  Hope this points you in the right direction.

  Thanks a lot. It worked but there's a little bug.
  
  I used your code and I changeed:
  
  create context menu...bla bla bla.
  
  To:
  
  myDesignTimeCreatedContextMenuStrip.Show(new Point(Cursor.Position.X, Cursor.Position.Y));
  
  The problem is when I right click on a menu item the main menu (Favorites) is being closed as soon as the context menu is shown.
  
  How can I fix that
