ContextMenu

Kotlin |Java

interface ContextMenu : Menu

android.view.ContextMenu

Extension of Menu for context menus providing functionality to modify the header of the context menu.

Context menus do not support item shortcuts and item icons.

To show a context menu on long click, most clients will want to call Activity#registerForContextMenu and override Activity#onCreateContextMenu.

Summary

Nested classes
abstract	`ContextMenuInfo` Additional information regarding the creation of the context menu.

Inherited constants

From class Menu

`Int`	`CATEGORY_ALTERNATIVE` Category code for the order integer for items/groups that are alternative actions on the data that is currently displayed -- or/add this with your base value.
`Int`	`CATEGORY_CONTAINER` Category code for the order integer for items/groups that are part of a container -- or/add this with your base value.
`Int`	`CATEGORY_SECONDARY` Category code for the order integer for items/groups that are user-supplied secondary (infrequently used) options -- or/add this with your base value.
`Int`	`CATEGORY_SYSTEM` Category code for the order integer for items/groups that are provided by the system -- or/add this with your base value.
`Int`	`FIRST` First value for group and item identifier integers.
`Int`	`FLAG_ALWAYS_PERFORM_CLOSE` Flag for `performShortcut(int,android.view.KeyEvent,int)`: if set, always close the menu after executing the shortcut. Closing the menu also resets the prepared state.
`Int`	`FLAG_APPEND_TO_GROUP` Flag for `addIntentOptions`: if set, do not automatically remove any existing menu items in the same group.
`Int`	`FLAG_PERFORM_NO_CLOSE` Flag for `performShortcut`: if set, do not close the menu after executing the shortcut.
`Int`	`NONE` Value to use for group and item identifier integers when you don't care about them.
`Int`	`SUPPORTED_MODIFIERS_MASK` A mask of all supported modifiers for MenuItem's keyboard shortcuts

Public methods

Inherited functions

From class Menu

`MenuItem!`	`add(title: CharSequence!)` Add a new item to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label.
`MenuItem!`	`add(titleRes: Int)` Add a new item to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label.
`MenuItem!`	`add(groupId: Int, itemId: Int, order: Int, title: CharSequence!)` Add a new item to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label.
`MenuItem!`	`add(groupId: Int, itemId: Int, order: Int, titleRes: Int)` Variation on `add(int,int,int,java.lang.CharSequence)` that takes a string resource identifier instead of the string itself.
`Int`	`addIntentOptions(groupId: Int, itemId: Int, order: Int, caller: ComponentName!, specifics: Array<Intent!>!, intent: Intent!, flags: Int, outSpecificItems: Array<MenuItem!>!)` Add a group of menu items corresponding to actions that can be performed for a particular Intent. The Intent is most often configured with a null action, the data that the current activity is working with, and includes either the `Intent#CATEGORY_ALTERNATIVE` or `Intent#CATEGORY_SELECTED_ALTERNATIVE` to find activities that have said they would like to be included as optional action. You can, however, use any Intent you want. See android.content.pm.PackageManager#queryIntentActivityOptions for more * details on the caller, specifics, and intent arguments. The list returned by that function is used to populate the resulting menu items. All of the menu items of possible options for the intent will be added with the given group and id. You can use the group to control ordering of the items in relation to other items in the menu. Normally this function will automatically remove any existing items in the menu in the same group and place a divider above and below the added items; this behavior can be modified with the flags parameter. For each of the generated items `MenuItem#setIntent` is called to associate the appropriate Intent with the item; this means the activity will automatically be started for you without having to do anything else.
`SubMenu!`	`addSubMenu(title: CharSequence!)` Add a new sub-menu to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label. To modify other attributes on the submenu's menu item, use `SubMenu#getItem()`.
`SubMenu!`	`addSubMenu(titleRes: Int)` Add a new sub-menu to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label. To modify other attributes on the submenu's menu item, use `SubMenu#getItem()`.
`SubMenu!`	`addSubMenu(groupId: Int, itemId: Int, order: Int, title: CharSequence!)` Add a new sub-menu to the menu. This item displays the given title for its label. To modify other attributes on the submenu's menu item, use `SubMenu#getItem()`. Note that you can only have one level of sub-menus, i.e. you cannnot add a subMenu to a subMenu: An `UnsupportedOperationException` will be thrown if you try.
`SubMenu!`	`addSubMenu(groupId: Int, itemId: Int, order: Int, titleRes: Int)` Variation on `addSubMenu(int,int,int,java.lang.CharSequence)` that takes a string resource identifier for the title instead of the string itself.
`Unit`	`clear()` Remove all existing items from the menu, leaving it empty as if it had just been created.
`Unit`	`close()` Closes the menu, if open.
`MenuItem!`	`findItem(id: Int)` Return the menu item with a particular identifier.
`MenuItem!`	`getItem(index: Int)` Gets the menu item at the given index.
`Boolean`	`hasVisibleItems()` Return whether the menu currently has item items that are visible.
`Boolean`	`isShortcutKey(keyCode: Int, event: KeyEvent!)` Is a keypress one of the defined shortcut keys for this window.
`Boolean`	`performIdentifierAction(id: Int, flags: Int)` Execute the menu item action associated with the given menu identifier.
`Boolean`	`performShortcut(keyCode: Int, event: KeyEvent!, flags: Int)` Execute the menu item action associated with the given shortcut character.
`Unit`	`removeGroup(groupId: Int)` Remove all items in the given group.
`Unit`	`removeItem(id: Int)` Remove the item with the given identifier.
`Unit`	`setGroupCheckable(group: Int, checkable: Boolean, exclusive: Boolean)` Control whether a particular group of items can show a check mark. This is similar to calling `MenuItem#setCheckable` on all of the menu items with the given group identifier, but in addition you can control whether this group contains a mutually-exclusive set items. This should be called after the items of the group have been added to the menu.
`Unit`	`setGroupDividerEnabled(groupDividerEnabled: Boolean)` Enable or disable the group dividers.
`Unit`	`setGroupEnabled(group: Int, enabled: Boolean)` Enable or disable all menu items that are in the given group.
`Unit`	`setGroupVisible(group: Int, visible: Boolean)` Show or hide all menu items that are in the given group.
`Unit`	`setQwertyMode(isQwerty: Boolean)` Control whether the menu should be running in qwerty mode (alphabetic shortcuts) or 12-key mode (numeric shortcuts).
`Int`	`size()` Get the number of items in the menu. Note that this will change any times items are added or removed from the menu.
