Hi,
I've got a context driven menu popup happening when a user right-clicks
a row in the grid. This is working fine.
Unfortunately, when the user right-clicks in a non-populated row (at the
bottom) I still get a menuDetected event when nothing is selected. As
such, the context code is wrong. I could detect this non-selection and
not display the menu, but in the case where a clicks a row first,
selecting it, and then right clicks into a void I'd prefer to still not
show a menu as it might be unclear that the menu selection relates to a
row selected much higher.
Does anyone know the correct way to determine a right-click in this void
area that would result in a menuDetected event - so that I can safely
ignore this event and not show a menu.

Hi Grant,
You should be able to use the x,y coordinates of the menu detect event
and ask Grid.getItem(x,y). If it returns null then you can assume its
not over a row.

Is this question more suited to another newsgroup? platform.swt?
