Right-Click Context Menu in D365O on a Tree control

-
AX 2012 used the PopupMenu class to create a right-click context menu. In D3650, Microsoft has done away with that and introduced the ContextMenu API which can be used to do the same thing.

You can override the form control methods and use the getContextMenuOptions to create context menu options and override the selectedMenuOption method to select the menu options.

Demo: AOTName - CostSheetDesigner form

CostsheetDesignerCtrl is a class that helps to creates the context menu options "Cut", "Copy" and "Paste" in the createContextMenu and allows selection in selectContextMenuOption methods.

Calls this method in the CostSheetDesignerCtrl class

In this post I’ll detail how you can print PDF document attachments using AXs DocumentContract framework. I have used this forum post as a reference: https://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/33/p/222925/785091#785091 1. Create extension of the DocuView form to introduce a new Print button. 2. Next thing is to create a handler class that will have all our event handlers. a. Firstly, we create a class with the reference to DocumentContract AX framework. In my case, I am also using Reporting framework. b. Let’s subscribe to the OnActivated event of the main DataSource which is DocuRef.
