Context MenuStrip

Hai all

I have a small doubt regarding contextmenu strip.I have added contextmenu strip item to my windows application with two items "expand" and "collapse".I have also added a empty click event for it.

private void expand_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //Something
        }

private void collapse_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           //Something

        }

Now what i need is as soon as as i select either expand or collapse.I want the current mouse position where exactly the expand or collapse is selected.

Hope i made myself clear..

If I understand you want something like this:

Define in ContextMenuStrip Expand and Collapse ToolStripMenuItems and,

//in constructor
            this.expand.Click += new EventHandler(item_Click);
            this.collapse.Click += new EventHandler(item_Click);

             . . . . .

private void item_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string cords = string.Empty;
            switch ((sender as ToolStripMenuItem).Name)
            {
                case "expand":
                    cords = "Expanded at ";
                    break;
                case "collapse":
                    cords = "Collapsed at ";
                    break;
            }
            cords += Form.MousePosition.ToString();
            MessageBox.Show(cords);
        }

You can get the mouse position from
```
System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position
```
